Weary oh so wearyA
With it allB
Sunny days or drearyA
How they pallC
Why should we be heroesD
Launa DeeA
Striving to no winningE
Let the world be Zero'sD
As in the beginningE
Let it beA
-
What good comes of toilingE
When all's doneF
Frail green sprays for spoilingE
Of the sunF
Laurel leaf or myrtleG
Love or fameH
Ah what odds what spray sweetI
Time that makes life fertileG
Makes its blooms decay sweetI
As they cameH
-
Lie here with me dreamingE
Cheek to cheekJ
Lithe limbs twined and gleamingE
Brown and sleekJ
Like two serpents coilingJ
In their lairK
Where's the good of wreathingJ
Sprays for Time's despoilingJ
Let me feel your breathingJ
In my hairK
-
You and I togetherL
Was it soM
In the August weatherL
Long agoM
Did we kiss and fellowM
Side by sideN
Till the sunbeams quickenedO
From our stalks great yellowM
Sunflowers till we sickenedO
There and diedN
-
Were we tigers creepingJ
Through the gladeP
Where our prey lay sleepingJ
UnafraidP
In some Eastern jungleG
Better soM
I am sure the snarlingJ
Beasts could never bungleG
Life as men do darlingJ
Who half knowM
-
Ah if all of life loveQ
Were the livingJ
Just to cease from strife loveQ
And from grievingJ
Let the swift world pass usR
You and meA
Stilled from all aspiringJ
Sinai nor ParnassusR
Longer worth desiringJ
Launa DeeA
-
Just to live like liliesS
In the lakeJ
Where no thought nor will isT
To mistakeJ
Just to lose the humanF
Eyes that weepU
Just to cease from seemingJ
Longer man and womanF
Just to reach the dreamingJ
And the sleepU
