THE KISS

That thrush .......
Did she, too, see the angels in the waters
That time we kissed ?
And did that blackbird see
The rainbow that in breathless wonder caught us ?
The mist
On snow -white blossom on the winter tree ?
Were there
Jewelled peacocks on the lawns emerald gleaming
And marvels in the grey and sodden sky ?
Ah, was it so, my love, or were we dreaming ?
Did any see these things save you and I ?
