Serenade! I come singing a serenade.
Walk into the shimmering hills, darkling glimmer,
O gloaming darkling glimmer embering, embering on Crete,
A shadow of fruit & song in the hills’ strong sun & wind,

Walk into the shimmering hills, darkling glimmer,
Panoramic Aegean glitter is your lashes starred transparencies.
Begin with your feet like white animals, slow & monumental.
Sculptural bridal soul of green shade & blue shade

Panoramic Aegean glitter is your lashes starred transparencies.
Begin with your feet like white animals, slow & monumental.
Sculptural bridal soul of green shade & blue shade.
In the sun’s towering reach stretch out your warm, damp hand.
