marriage poem

in their ragged regimentals
when i was a boy at college
a poet, having taken the bridle off his tongue
a gleam of gold in gloom and gray
i loved a woman
i go my way complacently
with joy and wonder
when freedom from her mountain height
the light withdrawn
all within and all without me
the body may confine
