To the Oaks of Glencree

My arms are round you, and I lean Against you, while the lark Sings over us, and golden lights, and green Shadows are on your bark. There’ll come a season when you’ll stretch Black boards to cover me: Then in Mount Jerome I will lie, poor wretch, With worms eternally.

J. M. Synge

My arms are you, and I lean
Against you, the lark
