My story rends the darkest light
Ascend my night-time’s screen!
Let
it fill and pass above –
Amongst
the midnight stars
See!
A tree’s reflected there
Its door opens in this moon!
A
river flows through it
Sapphire
blue
The
inner river sings – as it pours
But
as in a seashell heard – its silent roar
Playing
to the quiet –
Of
the still well within
See!
Around the tree – love’s gold ring of light!
Circled
through the starry boughs, above:
Entwined,
below – Sent kindly
Through
the roots of fallen stars
See!
The binding ring – through branch and root
Two
realms – by love – joined as one!
The
earth – in heaven – was heaven on earth
The
severing cleft – bound love’s new work!
*
For
the amending gentle I softly sing
And
tell about our love – as sun and moon
Though
they will not hear it
You made it so.
