...Jenny Joseph...

The sun has burst the sky by Jenny Joseph

The sun has burst the sky
Because I love you
And the river its banks.
The sea laps the great rocks

Because I love you
And takes no heed of the moon dragging it away
And saying coldly 'Constancy is not for you'.
The blackbird fills the air
Because I love you
With spring and lawns and shadows falling on lawns.


The people walk in the street and laugh
I love you
And far down the river ships sound their hooters
Crazy with joy because I love you.
