Undine Poem by Henry Van Dyke

Undine

Rating: 2.9


'T was far away and long ago,
When I was but a dreaming boy,
This fairy tale of love and woe
Entranced my heart with tearful joy;
And while with white Undine I wept,
Your spirit, -- ah, how strange it seems, --
Was cradled in some star, and slept,
Unconscious of her coming dreams.

Again, he lets his heart speak through his word choice and charms us into dreaming beside him
