Half Roundel
I make no prayer
For the spoilt season,
The weed of Eden.
I make no prayer.
Save us the green
In the weed of time.
Now is November;
In night uneasy
Nothing I say.
I make no prayer.
Save us from the water
That washes us away.
What do I ponder?
All smiled disguise,
Lights in cold places,
I make no prayer.
Save us from air
That wears us loosely.
The leaf of summer
To cold has come
