“The Night Has a Thousand Eyes” by Francis William Bourdillon [w/ Audio]

Posted on January 29, 2024 by B Gourley

The night has a thousand eyes,
 And the day but one;
 Yet the light of the bright world dies
 With the dying sun.

The mind has a thousand eyes,
 And the heart but one:
 Yet the light of a whole life dies
 When love is done.
