Youth In Age

________________________________________________
Title:     Youth In Age
Author: George Meredith [More Titles by Meredith]

Once I was part of the music I heard
On the boughs or sweet between earth and sky,
For joy of the beating of wings on high
My heart shot into the breast of the bird.

I hear it now and I see it fly,
And a life in wrinkles again is stirred,
My heart shoots into the breast of the bird,
As it will for sheer love till the last long sigh.

[The end]
George Meredith's poem: Youth In Age
