Black and White
No death within a dappled grove,
No "Go, bid the soldiers shoot!"
No butterfly just out of reach
No captain, climbing with his flute--
Nor swinging in the childrens' swings
Nor line dance lead by death, in vain,
Nor love gained throgh the loss of wings
Nor child's redemptive cry in rain--
Though birds change course in glinting sun
And love appears in loved son's face
No sorrow's end, nor joy begun
Can change the bent of yout eyes' grace.
