amy lowell - in a garden - richard mitchley lyrics

Loading...

gushing from the mouths of stone men
to spread at ease under the sky
in granite*lipped basins
where iris dabble their feet
and rustle to a passing wind
the water fills the garden with its rushing
in the midst of the quiet of close*clipped lawns

damp smell the ferns in tunnels of stone
where trickle and plash the fountains
marble fountains, yellowed with much water

splashing down moss*tarnished steps
it falls, the water;
and the air is throbbing with it;
with its gurgling and running;
with its leaping, and deep, cool murmur

and i wished for night and you
i wanted to see you in the swimming*pool
white and shining in the silver*flecked water

while the moon rode over the garden
high in the arch of night
and the scent of the lilacs was heavy with stillness
night and the water, and you in your whiteness, bathing!
