retirement poem

i loved a woman
against the green flame of the hawthorn-tree
it was a tall young oysterman
by the shore, by the sea
the saddest of the year
shines the last age, the next with hope is seen
i see all human wits
rising moon has hid the stars
all day to watch the blue wave curl and break
this is the song of youth
three days i heard them grieve when i lay dead
i am a woman
in an old chamber softly lit
