The leaded window opened
To move the dancing candle flame
And the first moths of summer
Suicidal came

And a new breeze chattered
In its May-bud tenderness
Sending water-lillies sailing
As she turned to get undressed

And the long night awakened
And we soared on powdered wings
Circling our tomorrows
In the wary month of Spring

Chasing shadows slipping
In a magic lantern slide
Creatures of the candle
On a night-light-ride

Dipping and weaving
Flutter through the golden needle's eye
In our haystack madness
b___erfly-stroking on a Spring-tide high

Life's too long, as the Lemming said
As the candle burned and the Moths were wed
And we'll all burn together as the wick grows higher
Before the candle's dead

The leaded window opened
To move the dancing candle flame
And the first moths of summer
Suicidal came

To join in the worship
Of the light that never dies
In a moment's reflection
Of two moths spinning in her eyes
