Philip Larkin (1922-1985)


She kept her songs, they took so little space,



The covers pleased her:



One bleached 1 from lying in a sunny place,



One marked in circles by a vase of water,



One mended, when a tidy fit had seized her,



And coloured, by her daughter -



So they had waited, till in widowhood



She found them, looking for something else, and stood



Relearning how each frank submissive chord



Had ushered 2 in



Word after sprawling 3 hyphenated word,



And the unfailing sense of being young



Spread out like a spring-woken tree, wherein



That hidden freshness, sung,



That certainty of time laid up in store



As when she played them first. But, even more,



The glare of that much-mentioned brilliance 4, love,



Broke out, to show



Its bright incipience 5 sailing above,



Still promising 6 to solve, and satisfy,



And set unchangeably in order. So



To pile them back, to cry,



Was hard, without lamely 7 admitting how



It had not done so then, and could not now.
