Sunday Morning Poetry




i have found what you are like
the rain,

        (Who feathers frightened fields
with the superior dust-of-sleep. wields

easily the pale club of the wind
and swirled justly souls of flower strike

the air in utterable coolness

deeds of green thrilling light
                              with thinned

newfragile yellows

                  lurch and.press

-in the woods
             which
                  stutter
                         and

                            sing

And the coolness of your smile is
stirringofbirds between my arms;but
i should rather than anything
have(almost when hugeness will shut
quietly)almost,
               your kiss

I love how I get what he's saying even when it sounds like a bit of nonsense on the surface.

"stirringofbirds between my arms" for instance - I know that. I just know what that is, and it's such a beautiful way of putting it.

Oldies, but Goodies
