Sweetness: peeling back my lids A dawning, a softness on my skin Fresh linen, peonies and sugared plums Dancing: now all walking feels like dance Talking, huddled pondside in the park Easy, peonies and sugared plums My friends and your friends And stumbling love letters Rain showers and plucked flowers And sweet sugared plums I know what they know now When they talk of knowing I'm heady, unsteady And easily won You have a kind voice And tall sloping shoulders You bring me pink peonies And sweet sugared plums In summer, the river fallen low Birdsong, the spires set aglow A falseness, the Thames never so clean Memories: fallen out of time Easy to think that they aren't mine And easier to live inside as waking dreams I stargaze and think the stars are men Send heavenward to be born again Then shudder and shutter the window tight Sweet plums and peonies And easy-spoke wishes Skylarks and green parks And swiftly-stole kisses Reckless and feckless And heedless and young Laughing with delight At the sweetness of plums
