A Word

Some word spoke

Some hidden voice vibrates where reason never speaks

There is not one thing that matters now

Save my pen and its rapid exudation.

 

In that moment some cord broke

One memoried spirit returning to its lost abode

Transmuted by this fire of soul -

Yea - all the world shall know

How she looked

And both the moon and Venus shall cling again

Among the chestnut branches.
