Weightless Boughs
Lost among the tallest trees
Men drowning of the green
Bury me under weightless boughs
Where I may not be seen
So I will come to visit you
In your nights of peace
Talk with me to comfort me
Still youthful in your sleep
Out there on the motorway
The gridlock of the dawn
Here beside a cherry tree
A hoof of newborn fawn
Ducks beneath the willow tree
My widow weeping silently
You let me down so tenderly
Leaving me rest eternal.
