You seekers in the grove of the moon’s marrow
What secrets would you wrest from the world’s bone
Come tell what further tales you would borrow
To compose and sing aloud your poem
If you pass this way leave here a sign
Where seeds sprout in the moon’s marrow grove
Where swollen grapes labor for your wine
And wreathes adorn the monuments of love
While dreams of childhood cling within your sleeve
in play with stream and stone and stick and mud
In thrall to the trees ever falling leaves
and the bulbs of the ever blooming bud
With what cage have you ensnared your bird
What endearing jail have you devised
Come tell, what seduction would confine the world
What sage could some perfect course advise
And what pursuits have seen your passing days
That partake of years and lives to bide
Steps made clear today may tomorrow haze
See those others trodden by the wayside
Poems wrought in days that fleeting went
The ripest fruit your eager lips have sucked
You sang your songs, time worse could be spent
And nowhere goes the ripest fruit unplucked
You seekers in the grove of the moon’s marrow
What secrets would you wrest from the world’s bone
Come tell what further trails you would follow
To compose and sing aloud your poem
If you pass this way leave here a sign
Where seeds sprout in the moon’s marrow grove
Where swollen grapes labor for your wine
And wreathes adorn the monuments of love
