Forgive Us, I Beg Of You

Inspired by Robert Frost's Spring Pools

These stars that, though in darkness, still shine bright

Upon the ocean waves that crash down with a fright,

And like the world beneath them, ever so changing,

Will like the world beneath them remain incomplete,

And together remain ever so longing,

Though the two may never meet

The seas that have it in each curled wave

To flood the world and cleanse the grave

Let them think again before they raise their scars

To judge these sinful sparks of life this day

This heavenly earth and these earthly stars

Blessed by the kiss of the wind only yesterday
