William Allingham - A Day-Dream`s ReflectionWilliam Allingham - A Day-Dream`s Reflection
Work rating: Low


Chequer`d with woven shadows as I lay Among the grass, blinking the watery gleam, I saw an Echo-Spirit in his bay Most idly floating in the noontide beam. Slow heaved his filmy skiff, and fell, with sway Of ocean`s giant pulsing, and the Dream, Buoyed like the young moon on a level stream Of greenish vapour at decline of day, Swam airily, watching the distant flocks Of sea-gulls, whilst a foot in careless sweep Touched the clear-trembling cool with tiny shocks, Faint-circling; till at last he dropt asleep, Lull`d by the hush-song of the glittering deep, Lap-lapping drowsily the heated rocks.
