00:00:01.450 --> 00:00:02.100 align:middle line:90%
The arrival.

00:00:02.100 --> 00:00:08.520 align:middle line:90%


00:00:08.520 --> 00:00:12.930 align:middle line:84%
From many boats, ferries,
and borrowed canoes,

00:00:12.930 --> 00:00:16.650 align:middle line:84%
white steamers and
resurrected hulls in which

00:00:16.650 --> 00:00:21.390 align:middle line:84%
we were young together to
assure older than waiting

00:00:21.390 --> 00:00:25.290 align:middle line:84%
and our feet bare on
the wet shadowed sand

00:00:25.290 --> 00:00:29.820 align:middle line:84%
early in the evening of
every verb, both of us

00:00:29.820 --> 00:00:33.870 align:middle line:84%
at the foot of the
mountain laughing now

00:00:33.870 --> 00:00:35.940 align:middle line:84%
will you lead me with
the smell of almonds

00:00:35.940 --> 00:00:40.590 align:middle line:84%
up over the leafless mountain
in the blood-red evening?

00:00:40.590 --> 00:00:45.210 align:middle line:84%
Now we pull up the keel through
the rushes on the beach.

00:00:45.210 --> 00:00:49.830 align:middle line:84%
My feet miss the broken bottle
half buried in the sand,

00:00:49.830 --> 00:00:51.405 align:middle line:90%
you did not notice it at last.

00:00:51.405 --> 00:00:53.930 align:middle line:90%


00:00:53.930 --> 00:00:56.330 align:middle line:84%
Now will you lead
with your small hand

00:00:56.330 --> 00:00:59.150 align:middle line:84%
your child up the
leafless mountain

00:00:59.150 --> 00:01:02.390 align:middle line:84%
past the green wooden
doors thrown away

00:01:02.390 --> 00:01:07.400 align:middle line:84%
and abandoned shelters into
the meadows of loose horses

00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.750 align:middle line:84%
that I will ride in
the dark to come?

00:01:10.750 --> 00:01:18.000 align:middle line:90%
