Poems (Van Vorst)/Break Thy Sleep
BREAK THY SLEEP
When to-night, the shining snow Fell on forest brown and lea,Hanging diamonds on the tree;—When the dazzling world below Lifted up, all brilliantly, Stars again, to stars to throw;— Then I thought of thee . . . !White the winter forests sweep Down to meet the midnight sea,—Dearest, break thy charmèd sleep,Dream a winter dream of me.
