Autumns Oriel
Give me all your precious
long-existing time
slipping, slightly feverish
it's not worth trying
Give me all your sleepless
slow-enduring love
condescending pressure
presses from above
Listen to the shore
caress our naked feet
I'll love you evermore
Feel the ocean sands
at our ankles stealing
dwelling, fever swelling
under moonlight kneeling
Listen to the shore
caress our naked feet
I'll love you evermore
Deaw me to a slumber place
the semblance of a softer face
there we'll find a hidden trace of hush
veiled in winter's sad embrace
