There’s a Place I Know Where the Birds Swing Low…

tiny-poemadoes:

Song in a Minor Key.       


              Lilacs nod, & marble god              is pale, inscented Gloaming.              & at sunset
There comes lady fair whose eyes are old gates           returning
              & trembling           birds           seek;           lady           stands, with (her)
Long white hands…            

                           A monument love graveher.
