AS I IN EARLY MORNING SAT 'NEATH RUSTLING TREE
WITH COOL BREEZE SCENTED, CARESSING MY FACE.
I JOINED IN HARMONIC MELODY WITH MAGPIE; BLACK BACKED.
TOGETHER WE OFFERED IN SWEET SONG OF PRAISE
OUR THANKS FOR A NEW DAY.
IN MIMIC OF VOICE DID JOY UNITE OUR VERY SOULS,
TWO CREATURES BOUND BY A LOVE OF LIFE.
WITH NO THOUGHT TO PASSING TIME, WE DID GIVE
UTTERENCE TO OUR FEELINGS, CONTENT IN OUR UNION.
THOUGH THUNDER, PERCHANCE SOME DISTANCE AWAY,
DID, ON LUMBERING WHEELS TRAVERSE THE SKY.
WHILE CHARIOTS OF CLOUDS DID RACE TO SOME PREDETERMENED
SETTING, AND THE GODS DID LINK POSITIVE TO NAGATIVE.
THEY DID IN MERRIMENT, DISTURB THE TRANQUILITY OF TWO
WHO WERE CONTENT IN THEIR UNION.
