Yours is the face that the earth turns to me | B |
Continuous beyond its human features lie | C |
The mountain forms that rest against the sky | C |
With your eyes the reflecting rainbow the sun's light | D |
Sees me forest and flower bird and beast | E |
Know and hold me forever in the world's thought | F |
Creation's deep untroubled retrospect | G |
- | |
When your hand touches mine it is the earth | H |
That takes me the green grass | I |
And rocks and rivers the green graves | J |
And children still unborn and ancestors | K |
In love passed down from hand to hand from God | L |
Your love comes from the creation of the world | M |
From those paternal fingers streaming through the clouds | N |
That break with light the surface of the sea | B |
- | |
Here where I trace your body with my hand | O |
Love's presence has no end | P |
For these your arms that hold me are the world's | Q |
In us the continents clouds and oceans meet | R |
Our arbitrary selves extensive with the night | D |
Lost in the heart's worship and the body's sleep | S |
