Like petals one by one | B |
Down from yon tree whose flowers all | A |
Must vanish in the sun | B |

Like almond petals down dear | C |
Odorous rosy white | D |
Falling to our green world here | E |
Off the thick boughs of night | D |

One like another still lies | F |
Tomorrow is today | G |
Always the buzzing bee flies | F |
Who never flies away | G |

Ever the same blue sky rounds | H |
Its chalice for the sun | B |
The mountains at the world's bounds | H |
Their purple chorals run | B |

And ever you and I friend | I |
Free of this mortal scheme | J |
Look out beyond desire's end | I |
And dream the spacious dream | J |
