Dateless

Dates mean nothing. The poems are just ordered as I please. I believe I still have a mostly accurate account of dates elsewhere.

"The fountain"

 The fountain


More patience than a mountain

Or a sparkling silver stream

Trickling from a fountain

Pouring love of life extreme


I will not bide

The waning tide

I will not cross

The albatross

On way to loving dream


The ripples from the fountain shake

The ways of life, a cresting quake

That carries on beyond this life

Past pain and ache and sudden strife

Into your loving arms

The fountain turns to steam
