Florence Churchill Casebeer - XXI. Hildegarde Flanner lyrics

Today all barriers in your garden lift! An instant and the poet in your breast Swings on the compa** of the further west And you become a dream of wings that drift On upper reaches where the eye may rift Uncharted places and put earth to test. Proven--your words anchor the souls unrest. The flowering magic of the ash I sift! And now I wait, reluctant that I leave This endeared spot, where mysteries are wrought-- The pool's mirror, the star dust on the green, The eerie sense of some one at my sleeve. All the reality the curious sought Is dimmed at sight of one in silver sheen.
