Thus the Light rains, thus pours,
the liquid and rushing crystal
beneath the knees of the gods.
~ from CANTO IV by Ezra Pound
Be still, my soul, and steadfast.
Earth and heaven both are still watching
though time is draining from the clock
and your walk, that was confident and quick,
has become slow.
So be slow if you must, but let
the heart still play its true part.
Love still as once you loved deeply
and without patience. Let God and the world
know you are grateful.
That the gift has been given.
