From Emily's Quest
I should know you, darling
Without surprise you spill
Your faithful light of morning
Over the far blue hill
You tug from moor and meadow
Midnight’s muted manteau
You ease away the shadow
Where dusk bid us adieu
And I should fully know you
Tell me, how it can be
That after all these years, love
You still surprise me
You veil within your bearing
That which none can predict
You heed to commandeering
Of time’s law and edict
I guess I’ll never know you
By much more than your name
For no two of you, darling
Are ever quite the same

ReplyDeleteSun has been sparse this week for sure..
Reading this series as no-longer-a-young-girl, was like reading it for the first time
