Two memories;
Two powers; two promises; two silences
Closed in this cry; closed in these thousand leaves
Articulate。  This sudden hour retrieves
The purpose of the past;
Separate; apartembraced; embraced at last。

〃Whose is the word?
Is it I that spake?  Is it thou?  Is it I that heard?〃
〃Thine earth was solitary; yet I found thee!〃
〃Thy sky was pathless; but I caught; I bound thee;
Thou visitant divine。〃
〃O thou my Voice; the word was thine。〃
〃Was thine。〃



A POET'S WIFE



I saw a tract of ocean locked in…land
Within a field's embrace …
The very sea!  Afar it fled the strand
And gave the seasons chase;
And met the night alone; the tempest spanned;
Saw sunrise face to face。

O Poet; more than ocean; lonelier!
In inaccessible rest
And storm remote; thou; sea of thoughts; dost stir;
Scattered through east to west; …
Now; while thou closest with the kiss of her
Who locks thee to her breast。



VENERATION OF IMAGES



Thou man; first…comer; whose wide arms entreat;
Gather; clasp; welcome; bind;
Lack; or remember! whose warm pulses beat
With love of thine own kind;

Unlifted for a blessing on yon sea;
Unshrined on this high…way;
O flesh; O grief; thou too shalt have our knee;
Thou rood of every day!



AT NIGHT



Home; home from the horizon far and clear;
Hither the soft wings sweep;
Flocks of the memories of the day draw near
The dovecote doors of sleep。

O which are they that come through sweetest light
Of all these homing birds?
Which with the straightest and the swiftest flight?
Your words to me; your words!
