ALL SORTS
Under the Stars.

=
Craving uncomprehended joys,
Hearing the desperats tight OF life,
But as far OF pleasant noise
Come. ere on thy OOld way thou start,
While not "a cloud 4 - future mars,
And sim that wildly Sating heart
Under the stars.
A stormy prime, 20 beautiful
With fierce delight, ecstatIc pain.
Spending and being spent, no luIl,
No rest, no want OF loss or gain
Ere with tired feet thou come 10 tread
The blood stained field of ended wars,
Pause; bow the glorles OF thy head
Under the starr.
a heavy time OF brows discrowned,
Ofhangiug hands and feeble knees
With piteous pale ghosts HUNTED round
And longings for impossible ease
All, beat no more like wounded bird
Against fate's iron prison barsl
When all sounds Rse, Ood 3 voice Is heard
Under the stars.
Soon, soon will come the supreme hour
When like n painted show life seems.
Or perfume OF rememDered flower,
Or dear dead faces seen I'm dreams.
Clasp hands bezaath the silent night
That bushes all thess mortal JarSi
rod, Thou alone art love and Light
Beyond the stars.
