ARABESQUE
Like arabesques of ebony,
The cypresses, in silhouette,
Fantastically cleave and fret
A moon of yellow ivory.
The cypresses, in silhouette,
Fantastically cleave and fret
A moon of yellow ivory.
The coldly colored rays illume
A leafy pattern manifold,
And all the field is overscrolled
With curiously figured gloom.
A leafy pattern manifold,
And all the field is overscrolled
With curiously figured gloom.
Like arabesques of ebony,
Or like Arabian lattices,
For ever seem the cypresses
Before a moon of ivory.
