Thou
dainty craft that idly swings
Upon
the stream with bolded wings,
Must
I discard thee now, pray tell,
Thou
who hast served me long and well?
Ah,
yes, I must, for, as it were,
I’ve
found another passenger;
And
you, ‘tis sad but far too true,
You
are not large enough for two.
March
10, ‘91
Pub. in Camb. Press
