Zora Bernice May Cross Head Poems

    I know no miracle so manifest
    As that you wrought upon me yesterday,
    Filling with love my chalice of pure clay
    From fragrant fountains of your own dear breast.

    Late, late last night, when the whole world slept,
    Along to the garden of dreams I crept.
    And I pulled the bell of an old, old house
    Where the moon dipped down like a little white mouse.

    How strangely lone unto myself I grow,
    Listening and looking for I know not what;

    That tales of love and chivalry unfold.
    ...
