I saw the back of the stars   Tremble and fall   While seahorses played   On the slope of your breast   I saw a hundred angels   Rush to the ground   They were giving you garlands   And giving you crowns   The flowers are everywhere   Christ glorious entwined   The tip of the moon   And the sun as it shines   And the roots as they burrow   And tunnel through earth   And the birds as they soar on their wings   I heard them whisper your name   And I remember you there      And the turtle-doves hiding   As your eyes roared with light   And I remember your smile   So wide and so red   Whilst the snowflakes covered   Your hair with their seals   And I remember our bliss   As we gazed at the wall   And I remember you there   I remember you there   With your mocking bird hair      Some years ago   We had sat down and wept   With the sea in our ears   And seven cats on our laps   Whilst the books gathered dust   Unread and untrue   And you flicked through the letters   I could not bear to read
