Panjandrum Poetry Series: Poem, April, Time and Light

Poem, April, Time and Light
(for Lou)



We know, as lovers, the sun has many wings,
poem, April, time and light.
You fold into a touch what I saw strowing
all to be too crushed to love or plight

and yet no star is so outspread
as what you open faith and stone
what last was cold I clutch instead
the light and power that is your own

to every stint, for I've everything
that havens make and all that’s good to me,
our simple nights of homemaking,
to hold and be the love we want to be

so close I feel the time entire
when any moment I reach out of the fire.

~William Frank
