Poem

I Heard You, Solemn-sweep Pipes Of The Organ

Walt Whitman
I HEARD you, solemn-sweet pipes of the organ, as last Sunday morn I pass'd the church; Winds of autumn!--as I walk'd the woods at dusk, I heard your long- stretch'd sighs, up above, so mournful; I heard the perfect Italian tenor, singing at the opera--I heard the soprano in the midst of the quartet singing; ... Heart of my love!--you too I heard, murmuring low, through one of the wrists around my head; Heard the pulse of you, when all was still, ringing little bells last night under my ear.
