Poem by Duncan Campbell Scott

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.

1. The Voice and the Dusk
2. The Sea by the Wood
3. From the Farm on the Hill
4. At Scarboro’ Beach
5. The Fifteenth of April
