But when I open the door
There are only the old lights
And the old accustomed faces
And the firelight on the floor. . . .
Hymn: Thou Hidden Love of God
© John Wesley
Thou hidden love of God, whose height,
Whose depth unfathom'd no man knows,

My heart is pain'd, nor can it be
At rest, till it finds rest in thee.

Wheel me into the sunshine,
Wheel me into the shadow,
There must be leaves on the woodbine,
Is the king-cup crowned in the meadow?
Heut abend bleibt es lange hell
© Anna de Noailles
Heut abend bleibt es lange hell, die Tage werden länger,
der Lärm des grellen Tages löst sich auf und flieht,
die Bäume wundern sich, daß sie die Nacht nicht sehen,

Now in any garden plot.

Telling me to come to Tibur:
At once!!

'Anienan spring water falls into flat-spread pools.'
Happiness

So early it's still almost dark out.
I'm near the window with coffee,
and the usual early morning stuff
that passes for thought.
Here's to the Maiden of Bashful Fifteen

Here's to the charmer whose dimples we prize;

But if to praise or blame you, cannot say.
For, who decries the loved, decries the lover;

Let me know where did my baby go where did my lovin' baby go
Hoodoo voodoo lady shake your black cat tooth and your mojo bone
And bring my baby home bring my baby back home yeah

Into my little room,
To the long chair and the firelight
And comfortable gloom.

Fish (fly-replete, in depth of June,
Dawdling away their wat'ry noon)
Ponder deep wisdom, dark or clear,
Each secret fishy hope or fear.
