I have seen the proudest stars
That wander on space,
Even the sun and moon,
But not your face.
I have heard the violin,
The winds and waves
In endless minstrelsy;
Yet not your voice.
I have the trillium,
Pale flower of the land,
Coral, anemone,
not your hand.
I have kissed the shining feet
Twilight lover-wise,
Opened the gates of Dawn—
Oh, not eyes!
I have dreamed unwonted things,
Visions that witches brew,
Spoken with images,
Never with you.
