Already the ripening barberries are red
And the old asters hardly breathe in their beds
Those are not rich now as summer goes
Will wait and wait and never be themselves
Those who cannot quietly close their eyes
Certain that there is vision after vision inside
Simply waiting for nighttime
To rise all around them in darkness-
It's all over for them, they're old folks
Nothing else will come; no more days will open
And everything that does happen will cheat them
Even you, my God. And you are like a stone
That draws them daily deeper into the depths
Already the Ripening Barberries Are Red was written by Robert Lepley & Rainer Maria Rilke.
New York Voices released Already the Ripening Barberries Are Red on Fri Aug 15 2008.
