'What could have people once foreseen
be they at odds with you and me?
Either the failure or windfall, you say?
By thunder, what difference will you convey?'
'My friend, now is now, and after is then.
I mean values change through the ages.'
'Yet cannot we confine ourselves to naming solely this!'
The rain was coming down in sheets.
My guest continued the speech.
I happened to see him sip the tea with fragrant creeping thyme.
'Oh, darling! Oh, darling! I can't bear it!
Stop blaming,' said I, 'me for stumbles which I make.
I merely want you to be with me
and hear your voice.
When the weather is damp,
when the sun shines.
That's why I speak.'
I merely want you to be with me
