I Wandered Where The Wonder Of The Sky----

I wandered where the wonder of the sky Was wide upon me. Isle beyond isle the east Was signing that the Summer night had ceased Upon the dawn. Then came a stranger by Immersed in the magic as was I. We stood together at the sorcerer’s feast Saying half-words; and as the day increased We parted with a farewell almost shy.

Something was there. There was drawn silently Through into life some fiery, clouded thing. O wise For one sweet flash of time we stood to see Death and the Inbeing Lie dreaming in each other’s eyes.
