I wish I could tell you exactly what is going on in my soul When I am with you I wish I could tell you about the many nights I would fall asleep fantasizing About loving arms to hold me And loving arms to catch me when I fall And a loving heart to beat close to mine Phisically close A heart that I would hear and that would love me. Yet these shapes float Up toward me, troubling the face Of quiet.

Poem: The Loreley by Aaron Kramer

lorelei poem

This poem has a sting in the tale which is never noticed by the Germans when they sing it, because the tune gets the stress wrong. The symmetry of the tiger is enhanced by A. Lorelei was not willfully seductive, but men could not resist her charms, and she could not resist their advances. As he grew older financial and health problems increasingly burdened him. The gentle embrace of my heart! The calm courses its way. Ideally I would be married with children by now, But I chose to live a life and not a pattern.

I cannot explain the sadness That's fallen on my breast. And yonder sits a maiden, The fairest of the fair; With gold is her garment glittering, And she combs her golden hair: With a golden comb she combs it; And a wild song singeth she. The sky is filled with radiance, For the stars shine brightly overhead While the crescent moon grins at me; I admire it from my bed.
