Downward, Through The Blooming Roofage Poem by Charles Harpur

Downward, Through The Blooming Roofage

Rating: ★2.5


Downward, through the blooming roofage
Of a lonely forest bower,
Come the yellow sunbeams,—falling
Like a burning shower:
So through heaven’s starry ceiling
To the hermit soul’s abode,
Comes the Holy Spirit,—earthward
Raying down from God.
