Helen of Troy And Other Poems

Song

You bound strong sandals on my feet,You gave me bread and wine,

And bade me out, 'neath sun and stars,For all the world was mine.

Oh take the sandals off my feet,You know not what you do; For all my

world is in your arms,My sun and stars are you.

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

The Rose and the Bee

If I were a bee and you were a rose, Would you let me in when the

gray wind blows? Would you hold your petals wide apart, Would you let

me in to find your heart, If you were a rose?

"If I were a rose and you were a bee, You should never go when you

came to me, I should hold my love on my heart at last, I should close my

leaves and keep you fast, If you were a bee."

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

The Song Maker

I made a hundred little songsThat told the joy and pain of love, And

sang them blithely, tho' I knewNo whit thereof.

I was a weaver deaf and blind;A miracle was wrought for me, But I

have lost my skill to weaveSince I can see.

For while I sang -- ah swift and strange!Love passed and touched me

on the brow, And I who made so many songsAm silent now.

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

Wild Asters

In the spring I asked the daisiesIf his words were true, And the clever

little daisiesAlways knew.

Now the fields are brown and barren,Bitter autumn blows, And of all

the stupid astersNot one knows.

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

When Love Goes

O mother, I am sick of love,I cannot laugh nor lift my head, My bitter

dreams have broken me,I would my love were dead.

"Drink of the draught I brew for thee, Thou shalt have quiet in its

stead."

Where is the silver in the rain,Where is the music in the sea, Where is

the bird that sang all dayTo break my heart with melody?

"The night thou badst Love fly away, He hid them all from thee."

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

The Wayfarer

Love entered in my heart one day,A sad, unwelcome guest; But when

he begged that he might stay,I let him wait and rest.

He broke my sleep with sorrowing,And shook my dreams with tears,

And when my heart was fain to sing,He stilled its joy with fears.

But now that he has gone his way,I miss the old sweet pain, And

sometimes in the night I prayThat he may come again.

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

The Princess in the Tower

The Princess sings:

I am the princess up in the towerAnd I dream the whole day thro'Of a

knight who shall come with a silver spearAnd a waving plume of blue.

I am the princess up in the tower,And I dream my dreams by day,But

sometimes I wake, and my eyes are wet,When the dusk is deep and gray.

For the peasant lovers go by beneath,I hear them laugh and kiss,And I

forget my day-dream knight,And long for a love like this.

The Minstrel sings:

I lie beside the princess' tower,So close she cannot see my face,And

watch her dreaming all day long,And bending with a lily's grace.

Her cheeks are paler than the moonThat sails along a sunny sky,And

yet her silent mouth is redWhere tender words and kisses lie.

I am a minstrel with a harp,For love of her my songs are sweet,And

yet I dare not lift the voiceThat lies so far beneath her feet.

III

The Knight sings:

O princess cease your dreams awhileAnd look adown your tower's

gray side --The princess gazes far away,Nor hears nor heeds the words I

cried.

Perchance my heart was overbold,God made her dreams too pure to

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

break,She sees the angels in the airFly to and fro for Mary's sake.

Farewell, I mount and go my way,-- But oh her hair the sun sifts thro' -

-The tilts and tourneys wait my spear,I am the Knight of the Plume of

Blue.

Helen of Troy And Other Poems

When Love Was Born

When Love was born I think he layRight warm on Venus' breast, And

whiles he smiled and whiles would playAnd whiles would take his rest.

But always, folded out of sight,The wings were growing strong That

were to bear him off in flightErelong, erelong.
