Rhyme Scheme: AB CD EF GH IJ KL MNOSpeak softly sun going down | A |
Out of sight Come near me now | B |
- | |
Dear dying fall of wings as birds | C |
complain against the gathering dark | D |
- | |
Exaggerate the green blood in grass | E |
the music of leaves scraping space | F |
- | |
Multiply the stillness by one sound | G |
by one syllable of your name | H |

And all that is little is soon giant | I |
all that is rare grows in common beauty | J |
- | |
To rest with my mouth on your mouth | K |
as somewhere a star falls | L |

And the earth takes it softly in natural love | M |
Exactly as we take each other | N |
and go to sleep | O |
