The Constant Lover

Title:     The Constant Lover
Author: Richard Le Gallienne [More Titles by Le Gallienne]

I see fair women all the day,
They pass and pass--and go;
I almost dream that they are shades
Within a shadow-show.

Their beauty lays no hand on me,
They talk--- I hear no word;
I ask my eyes if they have seen,
My ears if they have heard.

For why--within the north countree
A little maid, I know,
Is waiting through the days for me,
Drear days so long and slow.

[The end]
Richard Le Gallienne's poem: Constant Lover
