MY BOAT IS CAUGHT IN SUNSHINE





I

perch here

dazzled by light,

ransomed by the day star,

sprung from the dull world beyond.

O
see my brave boat caught in such a sun shine

as bids the glad heart

pound!

Did someone just cancel the seas, the sands, the skies?

What mystery now gilds and guides this gliding boat?

And these?

Are they diamonds that blaze from my eased blades?

And is there any name for this glory in which I float?

*
Here leave me, lost in peace, in contemplation,

nowhither bound,

circled by an etherial band,

here, where there is no form and no foundation,

no beginning and no end.
