I.

While the enamored stars would dare

Seaward to leap,

Seeking a truer heaven in

The loved deep.

My love so near me on the grass-

What a cowardice!-

Dares not to melt his mouth upon

My waiting kiss.

II.

I cannot understand, O moon,

Cloud-kissed now and then,

You still remain unsullied

Before the eyes of men

Who think me now unchastely

A blot upon me thrown,

Seeing my lover’s shadow brush

The fringes of my own.

‘U.I.O.G.D.’
