In the absence of your love rigid fortune given its due for now we lack the mettle to slip the prow into the citrus night the vessel no longer sure of its destination and plagued with weakness as time would have it
I recall a time when the bedpost rang and fresh were the garlands in the morning spirit and lifting with the dew we would walk the bay 'til the light played out and the evening would have us no more
Yet let us not swallow defeat my love tied as it always will be as a shadow turn the ash turn until the stem is fresh reaching upward ready to embrace new summer song
