George Meredith - Song (Untitled #9)
Work rating: Low

I would I were the drop of rain 
That falls into the dancing rill, 
For I should seek the river then, 
And roll below the wooded hill, 
Until I reached the sea. 

And O, to be the river swift 
That wrestles with the wilful tide, 
And fling the briny weeds aside 
That o`er the foamy billows drift, 
Until I came to thee! 

I would that after weary strife, 
And storm beneath the piping wind, 
The current of my true fresh life 
Might come unmingled, unimbrined, 
To where thou floatest free. 

Might find thee in some amber clime, 
Where sunlight dazzles on the sail, 
And dreaming of our plighted vale 
Might seal the dream, and bless the time, 
With maiden kisses three.
