funeral poem

days endeared to every muse
the arches of the red bridge
high walls and huge
now while my lips are living
night is dark, and the winter winds
under a spreading chestnut tree
calm as that second summer
i have known the silence of the stars and of the sea
made up of loveliness alone
let a joy keep you
