Life is really too much: the delicate poetry of Donovan

   

So begins another spring

THE LULLABY OF SPRING

Donovan

Rain has showered far her drip

Splash and trickle running

Plant has flowered in the sand

Shell and pebble sunning

So begins another spring

Green leaves and of berries

Chiff-chaff eggs are painted by

Mother bird eating cherries

In the misty tangled sky

Fast a wind is blowing

In the new-born rabbit's heart

River life is flowing

So begins another spring

Green leaves and of berries

Chiff-chaff eggs are painted by

Mother bird eating cherries

From the dark and wetted soil

Petals are unfolding

From the stony village kirk

Easter bells of old ring

So begins another spring

Green leaves and of berries

Chiff-chaff eggs are painted by

Mother bird eating cherries

Rain has showered far her drip

Splash and trickle running

Plant has flowered in the sand

Shell and pebble sunning

So begins another spring

Green leaves and of berries

Chiff-chaff eggs are painted by

Mother bird eating cherries

 Voyage Into The Golden Screen

In the golden garden bird of peace
Stands the silver girl the Wild Jewels niece
Paints and pretty colors Children's drawings on the wall
Look of doubt I cast you out be gone your ragged call





In the forest thick a trick of light
Makes an image magnet to my sight
Gown of purple velvet enchanted glazed eye
The sound of wings and sparkling rings behold a crimson sky

Tread so light so not to touch the grass
Breathe the air so slowly as you pass
Silent sudden dewdrop lies unseen until
Eyes to fall to hidden call the power of Love and Will

Symphonies of seaweed dance and swoon
God's celestial shore beneath the moon
See the dark and mighty peaks pierce the cumulus
Violet and mauve they sit power you can sus'

Tread so light so not to touch the grass
Breathe the air so slowly as you pass
Elvin fingers clutch a deep black cloak of fine damask
Aged rock in Mexico reveal a bejeweled cask

In the golden garden bird of peace
Stands the silver girl the Wild Jewels niece
Paints and pretty colors Children's drawings on the wall
Look of doubt I cast you out be gone your ragged call
