declining an offer


from the ABC set ФФФФ Selected Poems: 1989 - 2009

Declining an offer

long awaited nights of bliss
tell me that or tell me this
am I lost or am I found
(in my heart do you abound)

love has sprung up, love has blossomed
in the garden of my bosom
love has come and love has gone
but love has never done me wrong

love still leads me on my way
though I travel not by day
(still she keeps me should I stray)
So, Hate, I say:

"I say thee nay.
