DESCRIPTION
Everybody was wonderful

Stars kept rising, pink and gold
Trailing threads of breathless music
barely out of reach
Hand to hand around the night —

Oh Promise me

I laughed and laughed

It seemed so easy, just to walk
out of this world, across the lily pads

It was like a movie, with all the people watching from the shore

I don't quite know which is the real
and whether all the other days
belong to creditors

from whom we might next year be free
and on our own

Then we could touch, however briefly, at the fountain

Reaching far along the tallest,
bending low to stroke the earth

Pause the wayside to remember
any love for what it's worth
