retirement poem

in mournful numbers
shines the last age, the next with hope is seen
i am in love with high far-seeing places
which keeps
melancholy days have come
a thousand silent years ago
i love my life, but not too well
moonlight deep and tender
did you ever see an alligator
in their ragged regimentals
