On Raglan Road

on an Autumn Day

I saw her first and knew

That her dark hair

would weave a snare

that I might one day rue

I saw the danger

and I passed

Along the enchanted way

And I said let grief be a falling leaf

At the dawning of the day

On Grafton Street in November

We tripped lightly along the ledge

Of a deep ravine where can be seen

The worst of passions pledged

The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts

And I not making hay

oh I loved too much and by such by such

Is happiness thrown away

I gave her gifts of the mind

I gave her the secret sign

That's known to the artists who have Known

the true Gods of Sound and stone

and word and tint without a stint

I gave her poems to say

With her own name there and her own dark hair

Like the clouds over fields of May

On a quiet street where old ghosts meet

I see her walking now

away from me

So hurriedly

My reason must allow

That I have loved

not as I should

A creature made of clay

When the angel woos the playing loose

here's wings at the dawn of day
