The dream is - which? by Thomas Hardy

Performed by
Thomas Hardy

The dream is - which? Annotated

I am laughing by the brook with her,
&nbsp Splashed in its tumbling stir;
And then it is a blankness looms
&nbsp As if I walked not there,
Nor she, but found me in haggard rooms,
&nbsp And treading a lonely stair.

With radiant cheeks and rapid eyes
&nbsp We sit where none espies;
Till a harsh change comes edging in
&nbsp As no such scene were there,
But winter, and I were bent and thin,
&nbsp And cinder-gray my hair.

We dance in heys around the hall,
&nbsp Weightless as thistleball;
And then a curtain drops between,
&nbsp As if I danced not there,
But wandered through a mounded green
&nbsp To find her, I knew where.
