John Donne
Study me - then, you who shall lovers be
At the next world, that is, at the next spring:
.
For I am every dead thing,
In whom love wrought - new alchemy.
.
For his art did express
A quintessence - even from nothingness,
From dull privations, and lean emptiness:
.
He ruined me, and I am re-begot
Of absence, darkness, death; things which are not.
Waking Before Dawn
Forgive the birds their treatment of the morning air
- They must deliver a fragile sacrament,
As you may when on a cool evening you sigh
Deeply across the night and its changing sky.
Deeply the birds sigh too,
Though it seems as lightness to you,
Their ornamental ringing falls upon the air
As angelic singing already lying, waiting, there.
