Night Concerto

Harp of the world and dream-like strain
when I touch thy strings,
why dost thou re peat again
long forgotten things?

Harp, in other, earlier days
I could string to thee;
And not one of all my legs
vexed my memory

But now, if I awake a note
that gives me joy before,
sounds of sorrow from thee float
changing evermore

Yet, still steeped in memory’s dyes.
They come sailing on,
darkening all my summer skys,
shutting out my sun.
