Meeting At Night

Friday, January 27th, 2012

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day we’re post­ing a daily love poem & a Coulson Macleod typo­graphic print. Just because we love love.

Meet­ing At Night’ by Robert Browning

The grey sea and the long black land;

And the yel­low half-moon large and low;

And the startled little waves that leap

In fiery ring­lets from their sleep,

As I gain the cove with push­ing prow,

And quench its speed i’ the slushy sand.

Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach;

Three fields to cross till a farm appears;

A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch

And blue spurt of a lighted match,

And a voice less loud, through its joys and fears,

Than the two hearts beat­ing each to each!
