Immortal love forever full
Immortal love, forever full,
Forever flowing free,
Forever shared, forever whole,
A never ebbing sea
Immortal love, forever full,
Forever flowing free,
Forever shared, forever whole,
A never ebbing sea
A cool small evening shrunk to a dog bark and the clank of a bucket -And you listening
A spider's web, tense for the dew's touch
A pail lifted, still and brimming -
To tempt a first star to a tremor
Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nothing of him that doth fade,
Above the tower — a lone, twice-sized moon
On the cold river passing night-filled homes,
It scatters restless gold across the waves
On mats, it shines richer than silken gauze
God-Full-of-Mercy, the prayer for the dead
If God was not full of mercy,
Mercy would have been in the world,
Not just in Him
My heart was full of softening showers,
I used to swing like this for hours,
I did not care for war or death,
I was glad to draw my breath
