Pleasant Shadow Song
I heard of a place
That Time can’t erase
Of beauty and grace

Beulah!

You scoff at my card
Guess I’m no Abelard
“I don’t know…” just how far
Is Beulah

Would only to song
Weren’t indulgent and wrong
And shadow a long twilight
Always to play
And sleep through the day
For music and night

Enough with these books
Carrion and hooks
Ill will and looks
But to Beulah

To pull the forefront
Health for starvation
I’ve grown impatient
For Beulah
