Poem by Alfred Edward Housman


More Poems. 11. The Rainy Pleiads Wester


The rainy Pleiads wester,
        Orion plunges prone,
The stroke of midnight ceases,
        And I lie down alone.

The rainy Pleiads wester
        And seek beyond the sea
The head that I shall dream of,
        And ’twill not dream of me.
