BEAUTY AND BEAUTY by RUPERT BROOKE


Beauty and Beauty

When Beauty and Beauty meet
All naked, fair to fair,
The earth is crying sweet.
And scattering
-bright the air,
Eddying, dizzying, closing round,
With soft and drunken laughter;
Veiling all that may befall
After--a
fter--

Where Beauty and Beauty met.
Earth's still a-tremble there,
And winds are scented yet,
And memor
y-soft the air,
Bosoming, folding glints of light,
And shreds of shadowy laughter;
Not the tears that fill the years
After--after--



Rupert Brooke
