Having Known Some Beauty
Having Known Some Beauty
Yellow stars in grass oceans
trembling together
and you must look once more
before you go
Look once more before you leave
look up
look up with silver tears
while below a child's bare feet
feel cool on mornings ground:
There where those yellow flowers
earlier washed in fallen dew:
and you knowing some beauty
will leave your world
