Unforgotten song
|
|
|
|
|
|
Rain ran through the trees and the roofs,
|
|
All sweeping sodden foliage ...
|
|
Maybe in a club and can be hushed in the park,
|
|
Somewhere brass band plays ...
|
|
|
|
Again, I heard a familiar song,
|
|
One that once loved and observed,
|
|
And before me, as if in a fog arose,
|
|
Years and years of wandering alarms.
|
|
|
|
Breathes midnight crude,
|
|
Time noise above my head ...
|
|
Then everything is louder, then again, almost breathless,
|
|
Somewhere brass bands play ... 1963 |
