Duncan Campbell Scott (Дункан Кэмпбелл Скотт)

The Silence of Love

My heart would need the earth,
  My voice would need the sea,
To only tell the one half
  How dear you are to me.

And if I had the winds,
  The stars and the planets as well,
I might tell the other half,
  Or perhaps I would try to tell.

Duncan Campbell Scott’s other poems:

1. The Voice and the Dusk
2. Rapids at Night
3. The Sea by the Wood
4. At William Maclennan’s Grave
5. In the Country Churchyard
