I LIE upon the earth and feed upon the sky,AFTERNOON.
Drink in the soft, deep blue, falling from on high.
Walnut boughs, all steeped in gold, quiver to and fro;
Winds, like spirits, murmur, as through the air they go,
My soul is filled with joy and holy faith and love,
For noble friends on earth and angels pure above.
