their myriad leaves in leisured dance—

upon the fountain of their veins.”

Requited and for ever,
I missed love's everywhere
Small presence, thousand-guised.”

“He has married me with a ring, a ring of bright water
Whose ripples spread from the heart of the sea,
He has married me with a ring of light, the glitter
Broadcast on the swift river.”

Or the golden-haired sons of kings,
Strangers whose thought is not formed to the cadence of waves,
Rhythm of the sickle, oar and milking pail”

I bind for you the tides and fire —
the death that lives within the flower,
oh, gladly love, for you I bear.”
