-
What mystery pervades a wellB
That water lives so farC
A neighbor from another worldD
Residing in a jarC
-
Whose limit none have ever seenE
But just his lid of glassF
Like looking every time you pleaseG
In an abyss's faceH
-
The grass does not appear afraidI
I often wonder heJ
Can stand so close and look so boldK
At what is awe to meJ
-
Related somehow they may beJ
The sedge stands next the seaJ
Where he is floorlessJ
And does no timidity betrayL
-
But nature is a stranger yetM
The ones that cite her mostN
Have never passed her haunted houseJ
Nor simplified her ghostN
-
To pity those that know her notO
Is helped by the regretM
That those who know her know her lessJ
The nearer her they getM
