Pleasant Shadow Song

I heard of a place

That Time can’t erase

Of beauty and grace



Beulah!



You scoff at my card

Guess I’m no Abelard

“I don’t know…” just how far

is Beulah



Would only to song

weren’t indulgent and wrong

and shadow a long twilight

Always to play

and sleep through the day

for music and night



Enough with these books

Carrion and hooks

Ill will and looks

But to Beulah



To pull the forefront

Health for starvation

I’ve grown impatient

For Beulah
