Cleft for Me

Mound of ages cleft of me
let me hide myself in thee,
let your supple lip now part
let me reach your tender heart,
let me fly these special wings
to the final awful sting
 
Mound of ages cleft for me
as the parting of great seas,
let me play my fears away
in this warm forgetful way  
bring me comfort let me nest,
till my final, fearful rest,
 
Mound of ages, mothered all
from that first awful fall,
let the silent mirrors cease
to reflect my passing lease
let me hide, hide in thee,
mound of ages, mother, me...
