Lorna Moon Quotes

“To Frances Marion

I’ve made a song for you
Drawn from the stones that lie in shadowed pools
Moss sealing their lips
I’ve made a song for you
Taken from things that wake at starlight
Lain-quiet in the Blue;
And from the ferns that sleep
Deep in a cline by day;
And from the wind that bears the seed of Gorse by night;
And from my cagéd heart that cries
Soundless, behind its silver bars,
I’ve made a song for you.

From all the silent things of day,
From all the quiet things of night,
I’ve made this song for you.


Lorna Moon 25 Feb 1929 (unpublished poem)”
