A little further up the mountain side | B |
With night so near but not much further up | C |
They must have halted soon in any case | D |
With thoughts of a path back how rough it was | E |
With rock and washout and unsafe in darkness | F |
When they were halted by a tumbled wall | G |
With barbed wire binding They stood facing this | H |
Spending what onward impulse they still had | I |
In One last look the way they must not go | J |
On up the failing path where if a stone | K |
Or earthslide moved at night it moved itself | L |
No footstep moved it 'This is all ' they sighed | B |
Good night to woods ' But not so there was more | M |
A doe from round a spruce stood looking at them | A |
Across the wall as near the wall as they | N |
She saw them in their field they her in hers | O |
The difficulty of seeing what stood still | P |
Like some up ended boulder split in two | Q |
Was in her clouded eyes they saw no fear there | R |
She seemed to think that two thus they were safe | S |
Then as if they were something that though strange | T |
She could not trouble her mind with too long | U |
She sighed and passed unscared along the wall | G |
'This then is all What more is there to ask ' | V |
But no not yet A snort to bid them wait | W |
A buck from round the spruce stood looking at them | A |
Across the wall as near the wall as they | N |
This was an antlered buck of lusty nostril | P |
Not the same doe come back into her place | D |
He viewed them quizzically with jerks of head | X |
As if to ask 'Why don't you make some motion | Y |
Or give some sign of life Because you can't | Z |
I doubt if you're as living as you look | A2 |
Thus till he had them almost feeling dared | B2 |
To stretch a proffering hand and a spell breaking | C2 |
Then he too passed unscared along the wall | G |
Two had seen two whichever side you spoke from | D2 |
'This must be all ' It was all Still they stood | E2 |
A great wave from it going over them | A |
As if the earth in one unlooked for favour | R |
Had made them certain earth returned their love | F2 |
