Ernest Christopher Dowson - AutumnalErnest Christopher Dowson - Autumnal
Work rating: Low


Pale amber sunlight falls across     The reddening October trees,     That hardly sway before a breeze   As soft as summer: summer`s loss     Seems little, dear! on days like these.   Let misty autumn be our part!     The twilight of the year is sweet:     Where shadow and the darkness meet   Our love, a twilight of the heart     Eludes a little time`s deceit.   Are we not better and at home     In dreamful Autumn, we who deem     No harvest joy is worth a dream?   A little while and night shall come,     A little while, then, let us dream.   Beyond the pearled horizons lie     Winter and night: awaiting these     We garner this poor hour of ease,   Until love turn from us and die     Beneath the drear November trees.
