Never told how to unlove

      Never told how to unlove, dear lover,
      I piston on as piston did begin,
      Unrolling landscape's long hills and coverts,
      Rivers gathered at the roots where my eye swims.
5     So we travel on in loving leisure
      Affrighted by no false shadow of a cloud
      That moults its very being at wind's pleasure.
      So we move to our dancing's measure,
      Each synced step uncovering new ground
10    No matter that the steps are all the same.
      Our palms meet, and at your back's my firm hand
      Unmoving as we turn and turn again,
      Two travelers passportless in the land,
      Holding hands as we turn and turn again.
