|
I dream for the equable hour |
|
And the dream became a river |
|
A stream of running lead |
|
I felt its timeless flow |
|
And its ageless strain |
|
To burden me I sat on the grey bank |
|
Sand I watched passing of waves |
|
And the stream bore a body |
|
Pale and quiescent wench |
|
A bride came with the tides |
|
Eyes open unseeing |
|
Were of same colour as the stream |
|
I pondered this solemnly |
|
And the earth shook my thoughts |
|
And the river went running red |
|
As a mountain falling heavy |
|
A hoof struck the ground |
|
I turned to see |
|
And behold |
|
Spanning from horizon |
|
To zenith of the sky |
|
A mare rearing its legs |
|
Foremost reaching above clouds |
|
Hinder trampling the earth |
|
Casting an ancient rhythm |
|
And this earth resounds... |
