It’s peaceful now. The afternoon is still.
The street is quiet. Voices very dear
Reach up the stairs, caress me like a thrill
From heaven. I am home and you are here.
If I don’t find you in the rain
I’ll send the rain back up again
The moisture of your mouth is better...
My young love rests, hopefully sleeps
In the afternoon in Spring – she
Causes the cold bird to sing, she...
