Let me grow
old in peace-
Bask in rays
of a setting sun
Lean back to
rest, day’s work done:
From afar watch
worlds grow,
Listen to
new melodies flow
Not strive
to reach elusive ends
Nor yearn
for more; with nature blend.
A lone star
I’ll shine in firmament
No one to
lead; none to tend.
Lear’s
madness no more my curse,
Rising no
more Sphinx-like from ash
Sit and
dream of another world.
Where paths
run straight, winds don’t hurl,
And brooks never
lose their swirl.
In gathering
twilight fall asleep
Sink
silently into the deep.
Glad to
relinquish life’s course
Triumph o’er
all crushing force.
