Why should I fall trodden
In deserts of sorrow
Or walk in the shadows
Of tenebrous lies
Lest ere should I wait
For sweet sudden showers
To moisten the wings
Of the Egrets reply
.
For long would I ponder
Where oft life had whispered
With springs sweet sufficing
Or summers fond brooding
In autumns capitulations
To winters long slumbers
There would I travel
On wings of the Egret
.
Why long should I linger
In moments swift passing
When laughters brief banquet
Would lessen lifes burdens
On parchment with pens
In memories sweet stains
There would I sojourn
On wings of the Egret
