The Wings...

I once had...
two wings!
Two wings
that did exist, like two sidereal bases
of the Blue.
two wings
with all the miracles of life itself,
of death, and of illusion.
Two wings
flashing
like flying sails of some bright star in flight;
two wings
like two firmaments
with storms, 
and calms,
and stars.

Do you remember the glory of my wings?
the golden harmony
of their rhythm, their ineffable
bright colours saturated with all the treasures
of the rainbow---but a new rainbow,
and dazzling, and divine---
so that the Future's perfect eyes
(eyes that can see all light)
will worship...
the flight.

The fiery, ravenous, singular flight,
that for so long twisted the heavens,
woke up suns and meteors and storms,
shedding brilliance and fullness
onto lightning and the stars; with enough 
heat and shade for all the World-
Enough,
even,
to hatch the idea of the
"Beyond".

One day,
when I lay strangely exhausted,
on the earth,
I fell asleep in the forest's deep carpet...
I dreamed...divine things!
I thought a smile of yours awakened me...
I did not feel my wings!...
My wings?...

I saw them ,melt away---
between my arms...
exactly as if they were thawing!

Beauty shall rise from your heart in song, and you shall be the first to be purified... Subirá de tu canto y te habrá purificado a ti el primero...

The white Claw

In this splendour of white sky
I sink my eyes, and sinking them and weep.
The sky is covered with golden tears;
the clean sky.

And ah, it seems that a white claw
must swoop down and carry me
through the curving sky;
the white claw...

A few short years of evil past, We reach the happy shore where death-divided friends at last. Shall meet to part no more...

A Dream...

Good morning to you...
May Heaven argument your blisses
On every new month ye see,
A humble man which's !
A happy new day...
My bard-ship here, at your levee,
On sic a day as this is,
Is sure an uncouth sight to see
Among thae birthday dresses
Sae fine this day in May.

I Mai...

I mai,
den skjønne måned mai
da alle knopper springer,
steg elskov opp av hjertet
på morgenrødens vinger.

I mai,
den skjønne måned mai
da alle fugler synger
da tilstod jeg for henne
hva trang mitt hjerte tynger !
