this is the garden: colours come and go

字號(hào):


     this is the garden: colours come and go
     frail azures fluttering from night's outer wing
     strong silent greens serenely lingering
     absolute lights like baths of golden snow.
     This is the garden: pursed lips do blow
     upon cool flutes within wide glooms and sing
     (of harps celestial to the quivering string)
     invisible faces hauntingly and slow.
     This is the garden. Time shall surely reap
     and on Death's blade lie many a flower curled
     in other lands where other songs be sung;
     yet stand They here enraptured as among
     The slow deep trees perpetual of sleep
     some silver-fingered fountain steals the world.
