Classic Poem

He looked for her and found her
puzzled what he should do
so he let her go and began
to search for her again when she had disappeared
God! he said when he found her
make my sight large enough to encompass her
make from my stone water to quench her thirst
use me like a prison to wall her in
let me be round her like a wall of gratitude
otherwise break me over her my God
like a storm
at sea

He was lost but when he found her
he knew a little joy on earth
and then he flew to heaven
