The Stars 1912

For a thousand years the stars
stay quiet in the skies,
and ever at each other gaze
with wistful loving eyes.

The words they speak together
are beautiful and grand,
yet not the wisest scholar
their speech may understand.

But I have read and learnt it,
and know it evermore,
the face of my beloved
the face of my beloved
of my beloved
revealed to me their lore.
