And the shadows of tree-trunks and shadows of leaves

Interlace with low voices and footsteps and sunlight

To divide us forever.

THE FULFILLED DREAM

More towers must yet be built—more towers destroyed—

Great rocks hoisted in air;

And he must seek his bread in high pale sunlight

With gulls about him, and clouds just over his eyes....

And so he did not mention his dream of falling

But drank his coffee in silence, and heard in his ears
