I think this life is like a flowered field
I think this life is like a flowered field,
A buzzing mountain meadow, and every bloom
A day and every blade a night, that yield
To us their joys. Into this brilliant womb
We burst, both you and I, a doe and hart,
From out the twilight of the crags and trees:
Bewildered by the bright, we stop, we start
Bedazzled by the dancing of the breeze
Until, as though to break the spell, we spring
Into the dizzy air and coming down
Again we run and tease each
other on
Now we race, now we rest, now we lie and dream
And coming over to the further bound,
We leap back to the trees and
so are gone.
