All in green went my love riding
on a great horse of gold
into the silver dawn.
Tulips and Chimneys (1923)
The whole truth...
sings only —and all lovers are the song
Though you are as honest as the day, fear and hate the liar. Fear and hate him when he should be feared and hated:now. Fear and hate him were he should be feared and hated:in yourselves.
an essay in the anthology The War Poets (1945)
—tommorow is our permanent address
and there they'll scarcely find us(if they do,
we'll move away still further:into now

that love are in we, that love are in we

XAIPE (1950)
true lovers in each happening of their hearts
live longer than all which and every who
measureless our pure living complete love
whose doom is beauty and its fate to grow
seeming's enough for slaves of space and time
—ours is the now and here of freedom. Come
'and liars kill their kind
but' her,my 'love creates love only' our
no evil is
so worse than worst you fall in hate with love
—human one mortally immortal i
can turn immense all time's because to why
dreamtree,truthtree
tree of jubilee:with aeons of (trivial
merely)existence,all
when may not measure
a now of your treasure
yes is a pleasant country...
love is a deeper season
than reason
nothing false and possible is love
(who's imagined, therefore limitless)
love's to giving as to keeping's give; as yes is to if, love is to yes
the cunning the craven
... they live for until
though the sun in his heaven
says Now
love is the voice under all silences,
the hope which has no opposite in fear;
the strength so strong mere force is feebleness:
the truth more first than sun, more last than star
love is the every only god
