“It was a remarkable kind of light to steer for,daylight seen through a vista in the forest,but visible as far as an ordinary beacon at night.”

To tease me into doing it, on your level, and then you arent there
Or have adopted a different attitude. And the poem
Has set me softly down beside you. The poem is you.”
