THE POET'S MIND floats and dances on the waves of life amidst the voices of wind and water. Now when the sun has set and the darkened sky draws down upon the sea like drooping lashes upon a weary eye it is time to take away his pen, and let his thoughts sink into the bottom of the deep amid the eternal secret of that silence.
LORD OF MY being, has your wish been fulfilled in me? Days have passed without service and nights without love. Flowers have dropped on to the dust and have not been gathered for your acceptance. The harp strings strung with your own hands have slackened and lost their notes. I slept in the shadow of your garden and forgot to water your plants. Is the time over now, my lover? Have we come to the end of this play? Then let the bell ring of departure, let the morning come for the freshening of love. Let the knot of a new life be tied for us in a new bridal bond.
