“Bankrupt" One midnight, deep in starlight still, I dreamed that I received this bill: (- - - - IN ACCOUNT WITH LIFE - - - -): Five thousand breathless dawns all new; Five thousand flowers fresh in dew; Five thousand sunsets wrapped in gold; One-million snow-flakes served ice-cold; Five quiet friends; one baby's love; One white-mad sea with clouds above; One hundred music-haunted dreams Of moon-drenched roads and hurrying streams; Of prophesying winds, and trees; Of silent stars and browsing bees; One June night in a fragrant wood; One heart that loved and understood. I wondered when I waked at day, How—how in God's name—I could pay!”
