ASPIRATIONS: 11, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Blossoms rain upon the lea
Last Line: And thou standest in thy height.
Alternate Author Name(s): Lake, Claude
Subject(s): Grief; God; Conduct Of Life; Sorrow; Sadness


Blossoms rain upon the lea;
Moonbeams on the silent sea;
Dewdrops on the linden-tree;
And my fancies upon thee.

Milk-white blossoms fade away;
Quenched in night the moony ray;
Dews are dead at break of day;
Fancies droop all wan and gray.

But the lea blooms fair and bright;
And the sea rolls on in might;
And the lime waves day and night;
And thou standest in thy height.
