ghizela rowe - robert laurence binyon - the chestnut tree lyrics

Loading...

who enters here, beneath this guardian shade
feels over him a tender sky of leaves
dearer than heaven: at once his eye receives
strange quiet: fathomless as water swayed
above far++sunken ships, this luminous height
of dimness interposed
against the hot sun++beams
opens, a world uncertain of cool dreams
and blurs of shadow and spots of sleepy light
with ever greener quiet charmеd and closed

yet in the soft++hung lеaves a splendour lies
as though not from the far++off noon it came
but in themselves a green indwelling flame
were prisoned. here unanswered mysteries
content me, and of peace i want not more
but feed on thoughts that end
in a sweet pause of mind
as if from my own being back resigned
to the universal essence of earth’s core
where over me the saps of life ascend
