short love poem

and still they walked on
sun and wind and beat of sea
i saw the first pear
the meadow was creeping
tell me
old wine to drink
give me hunger
birds against the april wind
when sea-winds pierced our solitudes
often is it not so?
a little peach in the orchard grew
under dusky laurel leaf
if the red slayer think he slays
while i stood listening, discreetly dumb
