Gone Yesterday

Like a startled bird; Away flown yesterday, With the wings of the wind, While upon the arms of pillow i lay: Cherishing the beauty amidst her eyes not hand; Fetching liquid treasure with basket in my mind, While winter travels by. You disappeared like the night: revealing a naked day, Like the snap of the finger; You flutter and sneak away, Never to revisit here again. Was it known of your vast feet, Would i till my garden And make blossom its bud: Will thou succumb to the caressing lips of lullaby Like a tender tot: shall i array you a bronze colar, And a golden chain to adorn thy feet: Till tomorrow never come; Till you vomit all my treasure, You have quietly swallowed: Could i cajole here again, Will i make feeble thy feet: For all my reverie, I'd carve forever real. Am still dreaming! Gone,is yesterday.
