RENEWAL, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Lake notice, cupid! Far too long
Last Line: Swam in a mist of melted sighs.
Subject(s): Aging; Desire; Man-woman Relationships; Male-female Relations


TAKE notice, Cupid! Far too long
My heart has quivered at your song,
And brooded, brooded on the curls
And dimples of disastrous girls.
The time has come to sit and see
Bright youngsters, used as Love used me,
All begging heartache for a loaa
To drag along your hilly road.

This I said yesterday, before
Clarinda drove me to adore
The little violet rivers in
The lilied country of her skin,
And bade her cherried underlip
(Heart-wounding mischiefmaker!) slip
To pathos, while her sea-blue eyes
Swam in a mist of melted sighs.
