Crossing Wood
 

            Slap ‘a board upon a board-

                        make a wall-

                        wide, expansive,

                        holding up,

                        keeping out,

                        sheltering, till the end.

            Slap ‘a board upon a board-

                        make a fence-

                        stretched, winding,

                        climbing down,

                        keeping out,

                        sheltering, till the end.

            Slap a board upon a board-

                        make a cross-

                        firm, frail,

                        bursting out,

                        keeping in,

                        sheltering, till the end.
