The
garden is gone where the archbishop
Walked during his exile, sometimes alone,
Sometimes with a duchess descended
From Melusine while servants behind them
Swept away evidence of their passage.
Walked during his exile, sometimes alone,
Sometimes with a duchess descended
From Melusine while servants behind them
Swept away evidence of their passage.
Occasionally
God, choosing to exist,
Sets
them going again; well-behaved flowers
Cover
the pavement; lines of trees
Nod to
each other and the duchess
Tells
the archbishop on of the jokes
She
inherited from her mother.
