LEDA AND THE SWAN

“A sudden blow: the great wings beating still
Above the staggering girl, her things caressed
By the dark webs, her nape caught in his bill,
He holds her helpless breast upon his breast.

How can those terrified vague fingers push
The feathered glory from her loosening things?
And how can body, laid in that white rush,
But feel the strange heart beating where it lies?”….

MEMORY

“One han a lovely face,
And two or three had charm,
But charm and face were in vain
Because the mountain grass
Cannot but keep the form
Where the mountain hare has lain.”

In glory of changeless metal
Common bird or petal

Eterno Weats fácil de querer difícil de odiar.
