Semena del Amor - Dia 5(ii)


[tr][tr]
.                      


Happy 5th day of Valentine's Week!!!! (Edition 2)





Oh, Beauty, passing beauty! sweetest Sweet!
How canst thou let me waste my youth in sighs?
 I only ask to sit beside thy feet.

Thou knowest I dare not look into thine eyes,
Might I but kiss thy hand! I dare not fold
My arms about thee--scarcely dare to speak.

And nothing seems to me so wild and bold,
As with one kiss to touch thy blessed cheek.

Methinks if I should kiss thee, no control
Within the thrilling brain could keep afloat
The subtle spirit. Even while I spoke,
The bare word KISS hath made my inner soul
To tremble like a lutestring, ere the note
Hath melted in the silence that it broke.


*** Alfred Lord Tennyson ***
