Backward Climbing

Lifted ancient leaves and petals,
Drifts of many stains of green
And black beneath a tree of
Wet and dripping needle-leaves
See the yet untouched idea
Lifted by whose hands beneath
Coverlid-decay, a stream of
Spiral light becomes a wreath
Refracted by clear walls of crystal.
Lay you there and dream your fill.
Awaken at the crack of midnight.
Stagger backward up the hill
Climb the stairs your tower winds with
Bear the dream-key in your hand
Backward climbing, be a soundless
Spirit in a sleepless land
Bide a while, but then behold me
Smiling at your earthly door.
Secret love has long since told you
Who that key is working for.
