Lie too many and many a time |
|
Lie too many and many a time |
|
Cross the river, the river of bones |
|
Saw the flagship of summer on the water |
|
And my eyes fell to the edges and dregs of peace |
|
Pack my hearts, dazzled minds |
|
Looked at the fires, looked at the fronts |
|
Centrifugal spokes of mine |
|
Round the shape, my heading |
|
Some live in water |
|
Many and many a time |
|
Lie too many and many a time |
|
Cross the river, the river of bones |
|
Saw reflections of summer in the skies |
|
And my eyes, and my eyes, says my summer |
|
Burn shivering tracks of leaves |
|
