A.E. (GEORGE WILLIAM RUSSELL), by EDWARD JOHN MORETON DRAX PLUNKETT Poem Explanation Poet's Biography First Line: Now you are gone you seem a visitor Last Line: Lighting low irish hills, and then afar %to its own regions homing Alternate Author Name(s): Dunsany, Lord; Dunsany, 18th Baron | |||
Now you are gone you seem a visitor, Something that haunted for a little time The splendor of the evening, or astir With bees in blooms of lime; Or, at the hour when mothers tell old tales To children, something passing through the gleams Of cottage windows; or, on western gales Riding, a king of dreams; Or, about hawthorns lingering to greet The earliest may among the blazing green, Or, through the heather traveling to meet Spirits we have not seen; A lovely radiance of a passing star Upon a sudden journey through the gloaming, Lighting, low Irish dills, and then afar To its own regions homing. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONG FROM AN EVIL WOOD: 2 by EDWARD JOHN MORETON DRAX PLUNKETT SONG FROM AN EVIL WOOD: 3 by EDWARD JOHN MORETON DRAX PLUNKETT THE LOVE SONNETS OF PROTEUS: 88.
