They stoop to
find who discover a fresh leaf
The tiniest part
of swiftlight, ALL in the joy of falling
The precious
love-gold presses only where she loses
But all Everland
waits to watch to welcome all her kind
Shivers of the
broken thing her cache of emerald fire
Parted cradle-pearls fall upon the grail’s own cusp
Her welcome,
singing in every shattered heart-of-child
As waiting
Everland runs to find and greet her own kind
Outstretched, helping
her unseen hand lies in us silent
Hiding all the
favours of her beauty waiting patiently
As lost
wanderers walk, near blind to her presence
Seeking solace in
outer comfort and missing the spoil
Of a dropped
strength found the greater part of seven
And lived in, its
buoyant counterpart is very free
Love’s fugitives
escape wherever first they are taken
Finding sweet
company with hosts of star embracing angels
They win who dare;
they drink who by love make wine
They drink that better
love, the rain, and feast on favoured air
Finding comfort,
caught in Everland’s hidden splendour
They lose the
good, the hard to part with, and so find the best!
