Transcendental Sonnet #777:
Sweet Day in July

Fresh-faced and shining sweet day in July

Life is borne upon your graceful breezes
Carrying the very hope I live by
Antidote and cure for the diseases
By which jealous death's impotent fury
Would seek to sink me scuttle and scurry
Me would seek to pervert my equipoise

Confuse me confound by want by worry
The music of your hours with mocking noise
In envy to subvert your summer joys
Sweet July day there is no way that we
Could be kept from each other you and I
From our pleasant present reality

Fresh-faced and shining sweet day in July

Lovely!
Very refreshing!

You really ARE my american Heinrich Heine!

DÃ¤mmernd liegt der Sommerabend
Ãœber Wald und grÃ¼nen Wiesen;
Goldner Mond, im blauen Himmel,
Strahlt herunter; duftig labend.

An dem Bache zirpt die Grille,
Und es regt sich in dem Wasser;
Und der Wandrer hÃ¶rt ein PlÃ¤tschern
Und ein Atmen in der Stille.

Dorten, an dem Bach alleine,
Badet sich die schÃ¶ne Elfe;
Arm und Nacken, weiÃŸ und lieblich,
Schimmern in dem Mondenscheine.
(Heinrich Heine)

I Love you~
