Was it the sun that broke my dream <br />or was't the dazzle of thy hair <br />caught where our olden meadows seem <br />themselves again and yet more fair? <br />Ah, sun that woke me, limpid stream, <br />then in spring-mornings' rapture of air! <br />Was it the sun that broke my dream <br />or was 't the dazzle of thy hair? <br />And didst not thou beside me gleam, <br />brought hither by a tender care <br />at least my slumbering grief to share? <br />Are only the cold seas supreme? <br />Was it the sun that broke my dream?<br /><br />Christopher John Brennan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/was-it-the-sun-that-broke-my-dream/
