we will find acorns of gold
scattered carelessly on the ground
the wind from far stars
gathering its bouquets
we will wear dresses
smocked with lilies
and carry our hats in our hands
the ones with blue streamers
paler than water
oh daughters of dreams upon dreams
we were then
amenable to every roselike thought
why was it always every season at once
in our house
as though we lived
on the edge of Time?
