n forest covers,
Hoping that spring might free my lips with gentle fingers; Alas! her presence lingers
No longer than on the plain the shadow of brown kestrel hovers.

Spoke of such beauty as I may never recapture....

Is it only in love ... say, is it only in death
That the spirit blossometh,
And words that may match my vision shall come to me?
