Clown In The Moon

in #poetry7 years ago

Dylan Thomas, a renowned poet wrote such beautiful words in this poem.

This poem really stands out to me, it's as beautiful as it is sad. When I read poems like these I like to lose myself in thoughts of how they were able to create such poetry.

Such grace and romance in these words, one can't help but to fall in love with the vision the words allow you to see.

One of my favorite poems by Dylan Thomas... Hope you enjoy.

Clown In The Moon by Dylan Thomas

My tears are like the quiet drift
Of petals from some magic rose;
And all my grief flows from the rift
Of unremembered skies and snows.

I think, that if I touched the earth,
It would crumble;
It is so sad and beautiful,
So tremulously like a dream.

Dylan Thomas
