Days are where we live.
They come, they wake us
Time and time over.
They are to be happy in:
Where can we live but days?”

Starlight and dewdrops are waiting for thee;
Sounds of the rude world heard in the day,
Lull’d by the moonlight have all pass’d away.”

Flickers among the flat pink roses. I wake to listen:
A far sea moves in my ear.”
