They did the deed of darknessB
In their own mid lightC
-
-
He plucked a gray field mouseD
Suddenly in the windE
-
-
The small dead fly aliveF
Helplessly in his beakG
-
-
His cold pride helplessB
All she receives is lifeH
-
-
They are terrified They touchI
Life is too muchI
-
-
She flies away sorrowingG
Sorrowing she goes aloneJ
-
-
Then her small falcon goneK
Will not rise here againL
-
-
Smaller than she he goesM
Claw beneath claw beneathN
Needles and leaning boughsO
-
-
While she the lovelierP
Of these brief differing twoQ
Floats away sorrowingG
-
-
Tall as my love for youQ
-
-
And almost lonelierP
-
-
Delighted in the delightingG
I love you in mid airP
I love myself the groundR
-
-
The great wings sing nothingG
Lightly Lightly fallS
