I wrote about it here: https://andrewjshields.blogspot.com/2021/06/denise-levertov-dancing-to-workingmans.html

A long beauty, what is that?
A #song
that can be sung over and over,
long notes or long bones.
#Love is a landscape the long mountains
define but don’t
shut off from the unseeable distance.

'Bearing the Light' by Denise Levertov
Rain-diamonds, this winter morning, embellish the tangle of unpruned pear-tree twigs; each solitaire, placed, it appears, with considered judgement, bears the light beneath the rifted clouds -- the indivisible shared out in endless abundance.
