At Dawn and Dusk	A
Love Laurel	B
IN MEMORY OF HENRY KENDALL	B
	-
AH that God once would touch my lips with song	C
To pierce as prayer doth heaven earth s breast of iron	D
So that with sweet mouth I might sing to thee	E
O sweet dead singer buried by the sea	E
A song to woo thee as a wooing siren	F
Out of that silent sleep which seals too long	C
Thy mouth of melody	E
For if live lips might speak awhile to dead	G
Or any speech could reach the sad world under	H
This world of ours song surely should awake	I
Thee who didst dwell in shadow for song s sake	I
Alas thou canst not hear the voice of thunder	H
Nor low dirge over thy low lying head	G
The winds of morning make	I
	-
Down through the clay there comes no sound of these	J
Down in the grave there is no sign of Summer	H
Nor any knowledge of the soft eyed Spring	K
But Death sits there with outspread ebon wing	K
Closing with dust the mouth of each new comer	H
To that mute land where never sound of seas	J
Is heard and no birds sing	K
	-
Now thou hast found the end of all thy days	L
Hast thou found any heart a vigil keeping	K
For thee among the dead some heart that heard	M
Thy singing when thou wert a brown sweet bird	M
Gray ons gone in some old forest sleeping	K
Beneath the seas long since in Death s dim ways	L
Has thy heart any word	M
	-
For surely those in whom the deathless spark	N
Of song is kindled sang from the beginning	K
If life were always But the old desires	O
Do they exist when sad eyed Hope expires	O
How live the dead what crowns have they for winning	K
Have they to warm them in the dreamless dark	N
For sun earth s central fires	O
	-
Are the dead dead indeed whom we call dead	G
Has God no life but this of ours for giving	K
When that they took thee by each well known place	P
Stark in thy coffin with a cold white face	P
What thought O Brother hadst thou of the living	K
What of the sun that round thee glory shed	G
What of the fair day s grace	P
	-
Is thy new life made up of memories	J
Or dreams that lull the dead bright visions bringing	K
Of Spring above Are thy days short or long	C
Thou who wert master of our singing throng	C
Mayhap in death thou hast not lost thy singing	K
But chauntst unheard beside the moaning sea	E
A solitary song	C
	-
The chance spade turns up skulls God help the dead	G
And thee whose singing days have all passed over	H
Thee whom the gold haired Spring shall seek in vain	Q
When at the glad year s doors she stands again	R
Remembering the song garlands thou hast wove her	H
In years gone by but all these years have fled	G
With all their joy and pain	Q
	-
	-
My soul laughed out to hear my heart speak so	S
And sprang forth skyward as an eagle hoping	K
To look upon thy soul with living eyes	T
Until it came to where our dim life dies	T
And dead suns darkly for a grave are groping	K
Through cycles of immeasurable woe	S
Stone blind in the blind skies	T
The stars walk shuddering on that awful verge	U
From which my soul with swift and fearless motion	F
Clove the black depths and sought for God and thee	E
But God dwells where nor stars nor suns there be	E
No shore there is to His Eternal Ocean	F
A thousand systems are a fringe of surge	U
On that great starless sea	E
	-
And thou wert not So that with weary plumes	V
My soul through the great void its way came winging	K
To earth again What hope for him who sings	W
Is there it sighed Death ends all sweetest things	W
When lo there came a swell of mighty singing	K
Flooding all space and swift athwart the glooms	W
A flash of sudden wings	W
	-
	-
Dreamer of dreams thy songs and dreams are done	F
Down where thou sleepest in earth s secret bosom	X
There is no sorrow and no joy for thee	E
Who canst not see what stars at eve there be	E
Nor evermore at morn the green dawn blossom	X
Into the golden king flower of the sun	F
Across the golden sea	E
But haply there shall come in days to be	E
One who shall hear his own heart beating faster	H
Plucking a rose sprung from thy heart beneath	Y
And from his soul as sword from out its sheath	Y
Song shall leap forth where now O silent master	H
On thy lone grave beside the sounding sea	E
I lay this laurel wreath	Y
