“Knighting” the “Lesser Gods”

Knowing truth is descriptive of finding place
in diffused light, and it, filled,
to be separated with shade and vapors -
often, sunlight and clear, may be as much,
the lady making her countenance,
colors added, to be softened, and, then,
to be taken away;
but if time is allowed, the day’s steps, “will out” -
“it” always does -
the sainted troth, in springtime, sometime,
almost, often, is achieved, the knighting of we,
the “lesser gods.”
The face, sponsoring the features, the will,
pushes forth, and we meet to clasp, and hold, to know
our absolute press toward the mark,
we waiting seekers, to find the postulate
of the wager, a fashioned visage,
rose and ivory, dressing Romanesque leanings -
our treasure, a satisfied whole, the complete,
of the appointed care,
an accepted knowing.
