WHERE MY LOVE

 

WHERE MY LOVE

 

From Flanders fields

To poppy land

Through gardens planted

With love by hand

 

From the Cliffs of Mohare

Through the Irish sea

The search goes on

For you and me

 

A simple seed

Was fondly laid

To bud and blossom

In sun and shade

 

Though wisdom lost

Her fond embrace

The search goes on

For her tear stained face

I love all of the images throughout this piece, but my favorite are the last four lines.

"Though wisdom lost
Her fond embrace
The search goes on
For her tear stained face"

I found these lines in particular to be deeply moving. Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful piece of artistry.

I can imagine this being sung to the accompaniment of fiddle and pipe, a touch of the long laid-down folksong, played at night by a fire with a drop of the Irish in a crystal glass.

Sad in its way, like a search in a dream, but beautiful.
