emma topping - winter rain lyrics

Loading...

every valley drinks
every dell and hollow:
where the kind rain sinks and sinks
green of spring will follow

yet a lapse of weeks
buds will burst their edges
strip their wool+coats, glue+coats, streaks
in the woods and hedges;

weave a bower of love
for birds to meet each other
weave a canopy above
nest and egg and mother

but for fattening rain
we should have no flowers
never a bud or leaf again
but for soaking showers;

never a mated bird
in the rocking tree+tops
nеver indeed a flock or herd
to graze upon thе lea+crops

lambs so woolly white
sheep the sun+bright leas on
they could have no grass to bite
but for rain in season
we should find no moss
in the shadiest places
find no waving meadow+grass
pied with broad+eyed daisies;

but miles of barren sand
with never a son or daughter
not a lily on the land
or lily on the water
