short love poem

rising moon has hid the stars
sitting in his rocker waiting for your tea
splendid and terrible your love
uplifting, as the wind blew
long ago, in the young moonlight
do not grieve that it is over
from song and dream for ever gone
though love repine, and reason chafe
one sweetly solemn thought
there is a country full of wine
all within and all without me
along a river-side
one by one, like leaves from a tree
the endless, foolish merriment of stars
