*** A line in sand ***
“How is,
O, child,
To draw
A line
In sand?
For thine
- Such land,
While mine,
This quiz; –
*** Root ***
He smiled;
- Though none
But his,
The shore
I walk,
- A sigh
Long gone,
Thou one
Must talk; –
*** Root ***
Yet, raw,
Lime stones,
Sea choirs,
In waves,
They wash; –
Brown crabs
- Seems now
Back home
To rush – ”

*** Just a leaf ***
“In fall,
Cold wind
Blows fast,
Then slow –
I call
A leaf;
- The trees
Look thinned,
And crawl; –
*** Root ***
Pale moon
- Thus glide
Through stones
With musk; –
My heart,
A leaf;
So soon,
To ask
- Of these; –
*** Root ***
But while
Owls came
To watch
Such bride
Of night
I miss,
- This leaf
Hath slept
In wept – ”

“Each
New born
Comes to life
In a cry,

To teach?
Live or die; –

Each
New born
Ask to know
What Love is; –

It’s war,

It’s peace,

Each
New born
Then must reach

Where was
One’s joy,
- Where was
One’s grief?
Here is the speech – ”

“A
Grain
Of wheat
In my hand,

World
At rest,
In each shore
Of my thoughts; –

Each
Grain
Of wheat
On this land

Known
The soft word,
Where mild winds
Blown to the mill; –

Up
There,
To the hill,

Break
Still;
My mind
Seems to count
Grains of wheat – ”

So and so, –

“The oak
Stands
On guard; –
Watch
Close
Who is woke:
The leaf,
The trunk,

Lands
To froze,

Seems
To have shard,
Stiff,
Shrunk,
Winds in soak; –

The oak
Has
Deep roots; –
Rich
Streams
Fill this earth,
Grief,
Drunk,
Are world’s dreams – ”
