MY POETIC MODE In your fore walls I learnt etiquette In your room I gained knowledge Where I drank deep from the muse I can't pay off the deeds You kindled in me the fire of overall achievement Took me close to the world In contact with people with timbers and calibres To the spring of life where water of wisdom flows Dreams and ambition are twins Dream activates love ambition activates zeal Without them you are nothing Let me in your dream and be part of your ambition When all leaves off the bough And nuts and apples are gathered in Cornstalks waiting for the hearth And pumpkins safe in the barn and brim Let me in your future and time to come The time we spent together The memories of the good days Feelings and memories might come and go But you are always in my heart Let me in your memories and your time Love grows from love root to leaf The tap through it liveth It spreads infectious bliss Among unequal people Let my love up to your leaf through the root |
