Wave after cresting wave, upon tree limbs beached As sunset rays impart last dimming of this day Orpheus and his orchestra in festive salutation
These Seasons Four in cyclical reverie Dance about our manifest theme: All things, with time, pass as rain On earthen entrails fall Nurturing tree roots
Calling out through undiminished years Slumber now this dreamlike waking state A tapestry unwound, in strands, these strings Washing over we, upon grassy hillside stood Inaudible erudition
A grand, entropic bombast sinecure disheveled Measured out in furlongs of thought imbibed Surreptitious revelation aloud pronounced
Amid Summer's greens
