Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHDIBGJKD| How long ago the day is | A |
| when at last I look at it | B |
| with the time it has taken | C |
| to be there still in it | B |
| now in the transparent light | D |
| with the flight in the voices | E |
| the beginning in the leaves | F |
| everything I remember | G |
| and before it before me | H |
| present at the speed of light | D |
| in the distance that I am | I |
| who keep reaching out to it | B |
| seeing all the time faster | G |
| where it has never stirred from | J |
| before there is anything | K |
| the darkness thinking the light | D |
