Excerpt from Old Wharves: And Other Poems
Tones
Let me lie in the fields in the breath of the green bladed grass,
Let my fears fall away in the slumberous warmth of the sod,
On the wings of the spheres as they spin through the aerial pass.
Let my eyes see the calm in the colorful faces of God.
Let the violins play that have drunken the tears of a'soul,
That was bruised by the chain and the lash and the ominous dread.
Let the buried songs come out in the ocean's roll,
Let me hear for awhile the wish of the clamorous dead.
Let me wake to the moon and the croon of the fluttering notes
Dripping their tones from the tips of pale slender fingers,
Carry me out on the music that endlessly floats,
On the night and the dream and the wail of a sadness that lingers.
