Amy Lowell - Apples Of HesperidesAmy Lowell - Apples Of Hesperides
Work rating: Low


Glinting golden through the trees,   Apples of Hesperides! Through the moon-pierced warp of night Shoot pale shafts of yellow light, Swaying to the kissing breeze Swings the treasure, golden-gleaming,   Apples of Hesperides! Far and lofty yet they glimmer,   Apples of Hesperides! Blinded by their radiant shimmer, Pushing forward just for these; Dew-besprinkled, bramble-marred, Poor duped mortal, travel-scarred, Always thinking soon to seize And possess the golden-glistening   Apples of Hesperides! Orbed, and glittering, and pendent,   Apples of Hesperides! Not one missing, still transcendent, Clustering like a swarm of bees. Yielding to no man`s desire, Glowing with a saffron fire, Splendid, unassailed, the golden   Apples of Hesperides!
