CRY out on Time that he may take away
Your cold philosophies that give no hint
Of spirit-quickened flesh; fall down and pray
That Death come never with a face of flint:
Death is our heritage; with Life we share 5
The sunlight that must own his darkening hour:
Within his very presence yet we dare
To gather gladness like a fading flower.
For even as this our joy not long may live
Perfect; and most in change the heart can trace 10
The miracle of life and human things:
All we have held to destiny we give;
Dawn glimmers on the soul-forsaken face;
Not we but others hear the bird that sings.

For why cometh a time,
When you forget yesterday?
Forgot our vows that we made,
And turn and walk away.
*****
How can a heart forget,
The love we once had?
And turn yourself against me,
And make my soul so sad.
*****
You’ve found someone better,
And you’ll leave us behind;
You think you can change your heart,
And erase your troubled mind.
*****
How can you just quit,
And let our love just die?
I’ve done all I know to do,
But you refuse to try.
*****
If I could only be around you,
Our love would live , I bet;
But you want me to stay away,
So you can just forget.
*****
For what has happened to you,
That has torn up your mind?
From the precious girl I once loved,
The one so pure and kind.
*****
I know that you are hurting,
You can’t look at me any more;
I know I can help you,
Heal your heart that’s sore.
*****
I know I’m not perfect,
But I really try to be;
I really truly love you,
That you’ve got to see.
*****
I know I’m no studly man,
Big and tall I’m not;
I don’t have much to offer you,
But all the love I got.
*****
We’ve had our share of problems,
But troubles don’t last long;
If we work together,
From them we can be strong.
*****
Maybe you think you’ve gone too far,
And respect you’ll never get;
But if only you’d just reach out,
Forgiveness can be met.
*****
Don’t give up like other folks,
Just so you’ll fit in;
For God and I believe in you,
And beg you not to sin.
*****
I know that you’re confused now,
And don’t know how to turn;
Just take one step toward me,
And leave your pain to burn.
*****
For I so love you dearly,
I can’t watch you walk away;
Please tell me you love me too,
And that you want to stay.
*****

on the last day of winter i went to bed
harsh winds rainstorms beating my head
houses trees with a sucked-out look
new year flaked from the old one's hook
then overnight such a change of heart
spring come home with her confectionery cart
hundreds-and-thousands strewn in the breeze
houses sampling them as well as the trees
people savouring them in punts on the river
earth knee-deep in them praising the giver
so (blankets off) i'm out in the streets
glutton for spring and her burst bag of sweets

Custom in sin.
Let the wild leopards of the wood
Put off the spots that nature gives,
Then may the wicked turn to God,
And change their tempers and their lives.
As well might Ethiopian slaves
Wash out the darkness of their skin,
The deed as well might leave their graves,
As old transgressors cease to sin.
Where vice has held its empire long,
'Twill not endure the least control;
None but a power divinely strong
Can turn the current of the soul.
Great God! I own thy power divine
That works to change this heart of mine;
I would be formed anew, and bless
The wonders of creating grace.
