STARLIT NIGHT
One starlit night our love-song slipped
Out an open window [that
I had forgotten to make tight]
Slipped out to frolic beneath the moon
And danced all wild till dawn slipped jewels
Like wedding rings on fronds of grass
And back she came-a homing bird
A swallow cross a mighty sea
Back home safe and secret-safe
Clothed in glittering memories
