William Stanley Merwin

December Night

The cold slope is standing in darkness
But the south of the trees is dry to the touch
 
The heavy limbs climb into the moonlight bearing feathers
I came to watch these
White plants older at night
The oldest
Come first to the ruins
 
And I hear magpies kept awake by the moon
The water flows through its
Own fingers without end
 
Tonight once more
I find a single prayer and it is not for men
