I keep some portion of my early gleam;
Brokenly bright, like moonbeams on a river,
It lights my life, a far illusive dream,
Moves as I move, and leads me on forever.
--
Twoscore and Ten.John Townsend Trowbridge

Come, wander with me, for the moonbeams are bright
On river and forest, o'er mountain and lea.Charles Jeffreys
"For washed in life's river,
My bright mane forever
Shall shine like the gold
As Iguard o'er the fold."William Blake
Our true hearts are forever lonely:
A wistfulness is in our thought:
Our lights are like the dawns which only
Seem bright to us and yet are not.George William Russell
Along A River-Side, I Know Not Where,
I walked one night in mystery of dream;
A chill creeps curdling yet beneath my hair,
To think what chanced me by the pallid gleam
Of a moon-wraith that waned through haunted air.James Russell Lowell
Sparkling and bright in liquid light
Does the wine our goblets gleam in;
With hue as red as the rosy bed
Which a bee would choose to dream in.
Then fill to-night, with hearts as light
To loves as gay and fleeting
As bubbles that swim on the beaker’s brim
And break on the lips while meeting.Charles Fenno Hoffman
