THE HALF MOON SHOWS A FACE OF PLAINTIVE SWEETNESS The half moon shows a face of plaintive sweetness Ready and poised to wax or wane; A fire of pale desire in incompleteness, Tending to pleasure or to pain: Lo, while we gaze she rolleth on in fleetness To perfect loss or perfect gain. Half bitterness we know, we know half sweetness; This world is all on wax, on wane: When shall completeness round time's incompleteness, Fulfilling joy, fulfilling pain? Lo, while we ask, life rolleth on in fleetness To finished loss or finished gain.
