The Gold Day Has Dimmed
The Gold Day Has Dimmed
The gold day
has dimmed.
All that happened was the sun
went behind a cloud—
fiery was the green
among the leaves
trunks, stems
filled themselves, rose, wanting to multiply
all living things
and the earth too, the stones
were stirred
with desire.
Wherever there was water
there was light and life
and the air: well!—
you could swim in it.
The sun went behind a cloud
and all that is over now.
