Siegfried Sassoon - MiraclesSiegfried Sassoon - Miracles
Work rating: Low


I dreamt I saw a huge grey boat in silence steaming   Down a canal; it drew the dizzy landscape after;   The solemn world was sucked along with it—a streaming   Land-slide of loveliness. O, but I rocked with laughter,   Staring, and clinging to my tree-top. For a lake Of gleaming peace swept on behind. (I mustn’t wake.)     And then great clouds gathered and burst in spumes of green   That plunged into the water; and the sun came out   On glittering islands thronged with orchards scarlet-bloomed;   And rosy-plumed flamingoes flashed across the scene… O, but the beauty of their freedom made me shout…   And when I woke I wondered where on earth I’d been.
