My Soul Flew In Immortal Memory

My soul flew in immortal memory That last of breath and deep melancholy For when they reach the scene of romance Sway sway leaves of courage for all nature round I face more smiles and live with more tenderness And moon still be as white as angel's hands Whose hope that love is sure to receive The cherry blossoms bend over All night long in flood and storm More lively than the king of the bravest Autumn hoards rubies of heart in silence Delighted me to hear thee recite old poems Within fear that on belief hung glowing To follow desire like a sinking bird Behind I hear the hunter's wishes When fate's puppet was gone In this blue husk of days Is poured around the faith Melody, Color, and Word Is enough for Humankind? (dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Ms. Maya Angelou)
