Poetry
The birds are leaving the freezing trees,
That somewhere the sunlight has moved away;
For there's no shelter of righteous bliss,
To please the conscience of heaven's way.
I soar to rescue their wings and tears,
For nowhere they wander as fading fire;
To melt those frozen and lingering fears,
To whom they succumb'd their false desire.
For of this again the light must break,
Into the deeds of earth's shiv'ring shores,
That would send the angels for heaven's sake;
As in ev'ry day the season deplores.
With patience to journey, the river is clear,
Drifting through the mirror of tranquil sea;
For there's the daybreak of golden cheer,
As they gather nearer to follow me.
What such a delight as pleasing as May,
For all their minds have come to clear,
Are seen o'er the boughs of brighter day,
Have made the heaven and earth so dear.
