the staying youth

the "society of my soul"
will always remain here among the sad sweet lilies,
where it grew to know the whispers in the breeze
as friends, and fell in love.
call it folly if you will, and i'll still watch
the tides ride the times--
but that's an ocean of syndication all its own.
and i'll still learn from pain and age, but i won't let it
cage me on a rainy day down in my valley.
