24 | | After searching for days or even months | ||
25 | | I finally find it reclining lazily | ||
26 | | [above the peaks][] above the city as if to ask | ||
27 | | Did you miss me? Yes very much I reply | ||
28 | | and rush to embrace it but it smiles | ||
29 | | and recoils and tells me No no you | ||
30 | | have to try harder than that it says | ||
31 | | I do not give myself up so easily | ||
32 | |||
33 | | I try a different tack | ||
34 | | I sing to it bring it flowers nightly | ||
35 | | I compare its eyes to the morning dew | ||
36 | | it has not seen the morning dew | ||
37 | | I say its mouth is the sunset over mountains | ||
38 | | it knows mountains but the sunset | ||
39 | | is only a rumor from the Evening Star | ||
40 | | I tell the Big Dipper that it moves | ||
41 | | [like a quiet river across the earth][] | ||
42 | |||
43 | | Rivers I have seen says the Big Dipper | ||
44 | | they sparkle in the light from my stars | ||
45 | | Your stars like eyes I say and it smiles | ||
46 | | [No it says that is too easy][] | ||
47 | | It turns its back | ||
48 | | it walks home along the back of the mountain | ||
