The sea shore is the gods lap
Where the timeless meet,
The grey ditch by the hedgerow
Is my heart’s slow beat,
...
She ventured out from her castle walls
In hopes of meeting me,
I said: ‘we’ll flee to the furthest shores,
We’ll run to the far countree,
...
When the first sweet burst of love and lust
Has eddied and ebbed to dreams and dust,
Has eddied and ebbed in the tide of my head
To the essence of dreams and dust;
...
Is this your home-acre
Dark beauty of mine,
Cold winds and rash words
And long hurts and harsh wine,
...
English is simple, it flitters from the tongue,
It means what it says when all’s said and done,
No matter how we say it, stress it or declaim,
In English it always means the same, same, same!
...
‘How much we change...
I well remember when, ’
She said -
But that was years before
...
What would you with me
Catherine Gables,
Turn my face
From my winter stables,
...
From a blue cloud at the two o’clock
And out of the rain,
With a long step and a swift nod
The master came.
...
There was a bright-eyed boy
That no-one knows,
Who stowed away in steerage once,
I hid him in my clothes,
...
Why don’t you visit me,
Why be so sad,
Twilight is wizardry
Now that I’m mad;
...
