There Is a Meadow

There is a meadow of eternal seasons. with climes weening a tempered breeze four moons night-bright; a shade for sitting and kissing neath oaken mistletoe ---- a place to grow old with golden children born, when all without is war There is not a hill to bound, nor fortuitous crest to mount; there is a path among friends cool in the winnowing wind, And a song most melodious for thy footfall lute and string; from thy tongue, a tune of olden din, thy lips, with honest hope a thousand violins; Just beyond the hard places and rocky roads (there is a meadow)
