Where do you go to my doubting

Feel the tension flee

The cool sensation of being you

Now and in the times to see

The poet is to step on through


Wander in meadows, sit fast at kitchen tables, time passed

In faint but fair sunlight the dew is on the grass

And the misfit

He hits out for home at last


From the past into the present

Scent of mulberry and blue

On the plains and corn exchange crescents

The bookshops bring their pleasure do


With reflection of the morning

Past the dark time in to night

For the sleep and the dreams there dawning

Once again to lean beyond our own we might


Say then our prayers from the Hopkins bible

See again The Windhover in flight

Clasp our dreams with the now of Zen insight

Here the words:


Stumbles of sounds be gentle

Let us go there in deep delight
