Leaving England... | 2007
Das letzte Foto meiner England-Reise im Jahr 2007 — Wehmut nach den White Cliffs of Dover kam umgehend auf ...
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The White Cliffs by Alice Duer Miller (1940)
I have loved England, dearly and deeply,
Since that first morning, shining and pure,
The white cliffs of Dover I saw rising steeply
Out of the sea that once made her secure.
I had no thought then of husband or lover,
I was a traveller, the guest of a week;
Yet when they pointed ‘the white cliffs of Dover’,
Startled I found there were tears on my cheek.
I have loved England, and still as a stranger,
Here is my home and I still am alone.
Now in her hour of trial and danger,
Only the English are really her own.
