Gilbert Keith Chesterton - JosephGilbert Keith Chesterton - Joseph
Work rating: Low


If the stars fell; night`s nameless dreams   Of bliss and blasphemy came true, If skies were green and snow were gold,   And you loved me as I love you; O long light hands and curled brown hair,   And eyes where sits a naked soul; Dare I even then draw near and burn   My fingers in the aureole? Yes, in the one wise foolish hour   God gives this strange strength to a man. He can demand, though not deserve,   Where ask he cannot, seize he can. But once the blood`s wild wedding o`er,   Were not dread his, half dark desire, To see the Christ-child in the cot,   The Virgin Mary by the fire?
