Lazily, a boy with silvery hairs muttering requiem aeternam lifts his neck at the piercing radiance skimming off the eyeglasses rim, and there looms the glory, the spotless sea of blue, varnishes of spring gloss fuming out of the French coronation robe. The still-brisk branches hung bent at the weight of vivacity, sight of maidens whose eyes and grace bath in the full warmth of light, the kisses on the face of the river by the shower of half-bloomed petals, just as the stillborn thrills of the beating heart to the splintered fingers of Moirae. The time of adieu, the season of life. The mourning procession amidst the lustily caressing May breeze. -Primavera, thou name be the sweet irony of the dying flowers The evening wades in, and the coy face of the mountain blushes; Thence strides away the man whose gaze speaks of premature nostalgia Here the wind whispers the rosy delirium from the sakura tree at the far side, the faintness lushly hazed away by the cloudy veil of bittersweet grey.

A Maytide Funeral
Lazily, a boy with silvery hairs muttering requiem aeternam lifts his neck at the piercing radiance skimming off the eyeglasses rim, and there looms the glory, the spotless sea of blue, varnishes of spring gloss fuming out of the French coronation robe. The still-brisk branches hung bent at the weight of vivacity, sight of maidens whose eyes and grace bath in the full warmth of light, the kisses on the face of the river by the shower of half-bloomed petals, just as the stillborn thrills of the beating heart to the splintered fingers of Moirae. The time of adieu, the season of life. The mourning procession amidst the lustily caressing May breeze. -Primavera, thou name be the sweet irony of the dying flowers The evening wades in, and the coy face of the mountain blushes; Thence strides away the man whose gaze speaks of premature nostalgia Here the wind whispers the rosy delirium from the sakura tree at the far side, the faintness lushly hazed away by the cloudy veil of bittersweet grey.
