Dearest Sylvia,

Thank you darling for a charming letter which turned my head with pleasure. I am happy that you liked our poems and chapter. Tho think about you is to think poetically. Here are a pair of poems for you, dearest Sylvia. The second one takes a conceit of Donne's (Busie olde foole, Unrulie Sunner) and turns it round.

Nocturne

Pale blue stars ambush my sight:
Victorious ephemera
Of shooting stars traverse
The sky between our houses
On this cold winter night.

Oh for our hands to witness
The testament of love
With you on such a night
That I may be at last
Love's willing Sisyphus.

Aubade

Apollo makes the sleepy lovers
Each tousled nude complains
At the intruding light, and of the need
To work the orchard or the fields
And leave from love for daylight hours.

To work the orchard or the fields
And leave from love for daylit hours.
