| Our dabblings in Poetry inspired by Jane Eyre |
| Untitled, by Kathryn Gooch (composed with Shakespeare Fridge Poetry's limited offerings) My heart is melancholy Farewell tender dream A lover of your heavenly light Will never give up Though some say thou hast nothing to bestow To me you speak in seemly grace I am always beguiled by thy beauty If only wishes and vows could fill thy every woe Friend without thee night has come The sky above will never see summer break |
| Rochester�s Cry, by Rebecca H. Starkins In sunlight and in whisp�ring shade From lofty branch to deepest sea I will cry out, to heaven bade My dearest return home to me. In sunlight and from whisp�ring shade She has made good her swift depart, She who had my happiness made Now flees from me, my broken heart. From sunlight into whisp�ring shade She plunges to the great beyond. My angel Jane that I betrayed, Our broken string, our shattered bond. No sunlight, only whisp�ring shade Now clouds my life fore�er in pain, God help me, I am so afraid, I cannot live without my Jane. |
| Of These Things I Dream, by Kathryn Gooch To know your heart To see through your eyes To feel every emotion Of these things I dream To know your soul To share your hopes To share your fears Of these things I dream As your Comforter, I would wipe away your tears As your Protector, I would hold you in my arms As your Strength, I would carry you through As your Lover, I would always be true Your hands play across the strings of my life Love is your bow and hope your Conductor This is our one and only performance Heaven will be our encore If only we could find a Heaven on Earth Where our spirits could run free Where we can escape from the life That holds us as prisoners to the inevitable Of these things I dream |
