I do not hope to bind the wind Or set a fetter on the sea It is
enough to feel his love Blow by like music over me。
Come

Love Songs
Come�察�when the pale moon like a petal Floats in the pearly dusk of
spring�察�Come with arms outstretched to take me�察 �Come with lips pursed
up to cling。
Come�察�for life is a frail moth flying�察 �Caught in the web of the years
that pass�察�And soon we two�察 �so warm and eager�察 �Will be as the gray
stones in the grass。
Joy
I am wild�察�I will sing to the trees�察 �I will sing to the stars in the sky�察�I
love�察�I am loved�察�he is mine�察 �Now at last I can die� �
I am sandaled with wind and with flame�察 �I have heart´fire and
singing to give�察�I can tread on the grass or the stars�察 �Now at last I can
live� �
Riches
I have no riches but my thoughts�察 �Yet these are wealth enough for me�察�
My thoughts of you are golden coins Stamped in the mint of memory�察�
And I must spend them all in song�察�For thoughts�察 �as well as gold�察�
must be Left on the hither side of death To gain their immortality。
Dusk in War Time
A half´hour more and you will lean To gather me close in the old
sweet way But oh�察�to the woman over the sea Who will come at the
close of day�拭�
A half´hour more and I will hear The key in the latch and the strong�察�
quick tread But oh�察�the woman over the sea Waiting at dusk for one

who is dead� �
Peace
Peace flows into me As the tide to the pool by the shore�察 �It is mine
forevermore�察�It will not ebb like the sea。
I am the pool of blue That worships the vivid sky�察 �My hopes were
heaven´high�察�They are all fulfilled in you。
I am the pool of gold When sunset burns and dies You are my
deepening skies�察�Give me your stars to hold。
Moods
I am the still rain falling�察 �Too tired for singing mirth Oh�察�be the
green fields calling�察 �Oh�察�be for me the earth� �
I am the brown bird pining To leave the nest and fly Oh�察�be the
fresh cloud shining�察 �Oh�察�be for me the sky� �
Houses of Dreams
You took my empty dreams And filled them every one With
tenderness and nobleness�察 �April and the sun。
The old empty dreams Where my thoughts would throng Are far too
full of happiness To even hold a song。
Oh�察�the empty dreams were dim And the empty dreams were wide�察�
They were sweet and shadowy houses Where my thoughts could hide。
But you took my dreams away And you made them all come true
My thoughts have no place now to play�察 �And nothing now to do。

Love Songs
Lights
When we come home at night and close the door�察 �Standing together
in the shadowy room�察 �Safe in our own love and the gentle gloom�察�Glad
of familiar wall and chair and floor�察�
Glad to leave far below the clanging city�察 �Looking far downward to
the glaring street Gaudy with light�察�yet tired with many feet�察�In both of
us wells up a wordless pity�察�
Men have tried hard to put away the dark�察 �A million lighted windows
brilliantlyInlay with squares of gold the winter night�察�But to us standing
here there comes the starkSense of the lives behind each yellow light�察�
And not one wholly joyous�察�proud�察�or free。
;I Am Not Yours;
I am not yours�察�not lost in you�察 �Not lost�察�although I long to be Lost as
a candle lit at noon�察 �Lost as a snowflake in the sea。
You love me�察�and I find you still A spirit beautiful and bright�察�Yet I
am I�察�who long to be Lost as a light is lost in light。
Oh plunge me deep in love put out My senses�察�leave me deaf and
blind�察�Swept by the tempest of your love�察 �A taper in a rushing wind。
Doubt
My soul lives in my body's house�察 �And you have both the house and
her But sometimes she is less your own Than a wild�察�gay adventurer�察�
A restless and an eager wraith�察 �How can I tell what she will do Oh�察�I
am sure of my body's faith�察 �But what if my soul broke faith with you�拭�

The Wind
A wind is blowing over my soul�察 �I hear it cry the whole night
through Is there no peace for me on earth Except with you�拭�
Alas�察 �the wind has made me wise�察�Over my naked soul it blew�察 �
There is no peace for me on earth Even with you。
Morning
I went out on an April morning All alone�察�for my heart was high�察�I
was a child of the shining meadow�察 �I was a sister of the sky。
There in the windy flood of morning Longing lifted its weight from
me�察�Lost as a sob in the midst of cheering�察 �Swept as a sea´bird out to sea。
Other Men
When I talk with other men I always think of you Your words are
keener than their words�察 �And they are gentler�察�too。
When I look at other men�察 �I wish your face were there�察�With its gray
eyes and dark skin And tossed black hair。
When I think of other men�察 �Dreaming alone by day�察�The thought of
you like a strong wind Blows the dreams away。
Embers
I said�察 �My youth is gone Like a fire beaten out by the rain�察�That will
never sway and sing Or play with the wind again。;
I said�察 �It is no great sorrow That quenched my youth in me�察 �But
26

Love Songs
only little sorrows Beating ceaselessly。;
I thought my youth was gone�察 �But you returned Like a flame at the
call of the wind It leaped and burned�察�
Threw off its ashen cloak�察 �And gowned anew Gave itself like a bride
Once more to you。
Message
I heard a cry in the night�察 �A thousand miles it came�察�Sharp as a flash
of light�察 �My name�察�my name� �
It was your voice I heard�察 �You waked and loved me so I send you
back this word�察 �I know�察�I know� �
The Lamp
If I can bear your love like a lamp before me�察�When I go down the
long steep Road of Darkness�察�I shall not fear the everlasting shadows��Nor
cry in terror。
If I can find out God�察�then I shall find Him�察�If none can find Him�察�then
I shall sleep soundly�察�Knowing how well on earth your love sufficed me��A
lamp in darkness。

A November Night
There� �See the line of lights�察�A chain of stars down either side the
street Why can't you lift the chain and give it to me�察�A necklace for my
throat�拭 �I'd twist it round And you could play with it。 You smile at me
As though I were a little dreamy child Behind whose eyes the fairies
live。 。 。 。 And see�察�The people on the street look up at us All envious。
We are a king and queen�察�Our royal carriage is a motor bus�察�We watch our
subjects with a haughty joy。 。 。 。 How still you are� �Have you been hard
at work And are you tired to´night�拭 �It is so long Since I have seen you
four whole days�察�I think。 My heart is crowded full of foolish thoughts Like
early flowers in an April meadow�察�And I must give them to you�察 �all of
them�察 �Before they fade。 The people I have met�察 �The play I saw�察 �the
trivial�察�shifting things That loom too big or shrink too little�察�shadows That
hurry�察�gesturing along a wall�察�Haunting or gay and yet they all grow real
And take their proper size here in my heart When you have seen them。 。 。 。
There's the Plaza now�察�A lake of light� �To´night it almost seems That all
the lights are gathered in your eyes�察 �Drawn somehow toward you。 See
the open park Lying below us with a million lamps Scattered in wise
disorder like the stars。 We look down on them as God must look down On
constellations floating under Him Tangled in clouds。 。 。 。 Come�察 �then�察�
and let us walk Since we have reached the park。 It is our garden�察�All
black and blossomless this winter night�察�But we bring April with us�察�you
and I�察�We set the whole world on the trail of spring。 I think that every pa
