Anything’s possible, Sweetness and Light, <br />Maybe you’ll leave me lonely, <br />Maybe you’ll stir like a shade in the night <br />To turn to your one and only, <br />On a fine morning you’ll probably say <br />‘I’ve looked at you once too often…’ <br />And I’ll look in vain for the signs and the tides <br />Of your looks and your voice to soften. <br /> <br />Anything’s possible, Sweetness and Light <br />Maybe you’ll leave me never, <br />Maybe I’ll grow in your mind and your sight <br />‘Til I fill your horizons forever. <br />On a fine evening you’ll possibly say: <br />‘You know that I’ve followed your star.’ <br />And I in my turn will take Sweetness and Light <br />To the Sweetness and Light that you are. <br /> <br />26 March 1974<br /><br />David Lewis Paget<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sweetness-and-light/
