The thought doth knock,
On mind’s wooden doors,
Haughty reason roars:
“This is a deadlock! ”
...
A man, a woman, a restaurant
A look, a smile, a word
A sentence, another, a chat
A minute, an hour, a moment
...
Velvet veil of violets has covered thy hair
Ruby red roses kneel to form thy bed
Pretty plump pansies bend to pamper thee
Dormant drowsy dews on daffodils are shed
...
O thou proud Nature
Rolling in ashes of long-burnt
Fiery love of yourself
What are you boasting of?
...
Seconds die and I long for
The crystal moment
When your face
Rises from the clouds of solitude
...
