The Collected Poems of Rupert Brooke
Beauty and Beauty

by Rupert Brooke

When Beauty and Beauty meet
   All naked, fair to fair,
The earth is crying-sweet,
   And scattering-bright the air,
Eddying, dizzying, closing round,
   With soft and drunken laughter;
Veiling all that may befall
   After -- after --

Where Beauty and Beauty met,
   Earth's still a-tremble there,
And winds are scented yet,
   And memory- soft the air,
Bosoming, folding glints of light,
   And shreds of shadowy laughter;
Not the tears that fill the years
   After -- after --
