"A day has fallen past"

A day has fallen past

            A light flared through my eyes

And sunk; the windy skies

            Show no forecast;

There was sun and wind

            Flowers here and there

Some gardens bare

            Some ruined;

And did I care

            Walking among it?

Was my heart lit

            By the new air?

No, I did as I do

            Every day and night

Drink up the light

            Until I see you.
