Riddle In Blue And Gold Poem by Mary Angela Douglas

That which falls away is snow
Whispered the child unknowingly
On the blue planet wistfully
On the gold planet knowingly
Putting the colours back in order
Of beauty again, the Marian colours
The colours of when
The sky came dancing
The sun stood still
That which falls away is music still
Cried the child on the planet of ash
as the Marian colors came sifting through
And untied the ribbons of sorrow at last
Upon the curtains that hid the view
Of the planet of blue
The planet of blue
