  MY love lies underground
     With her face upturned to mine,
     And her mouth unclosed in a last long kiss
     That ended her life and mine.
 
     I dance at the Christmas party
     Under the mistletoe
     Along with a ripe, slack country lass
     Jostling to and fro.
 
     The big, soft country lass,
     Like a loose sheaf of wheat
     Slipped through my arms on the threshing floor
     At my feet.
 
     The warm, soft country lass,
     Sweet as an armful of wheat
     At threshing-time broken, was broken
     For me, and ah, it was sweet!
 
     Now I am going home
     Fulfilled and alone,
     I see the great Orion standing1
     Looking down.
 
     He's the star of my first beloved
     Love-making.
     The witness of all that bitter-sweet
     Heart-aching.
 
     Now he sees this as well,
     This last commission.
     Nor do I get any look
     Of admonition.
 
     He can add the reckoning up
     I suppose, between now and then,
     Having walked himself in the thorny2, difficult
     Ways of men.
 
     He has done as I have done
     No doubt:
     Remembered and forgotten
     Turn and about.
 
     My love lies underground
     With her face upturned to mine,
     And her mouth unclosed in the last long kiss
     That ended her life and mine.
 
     She fares in the stark3
