Have you time for six lines?

On my first reading, before I got past the first line, the sounds overwhelmed the meaning of the words. This is such a strongly musical and rhythmic poem that this happened twice more. It was not until my fourth try that I was able to focus in on the meaning. Not surprising to me, that aspect of these six lines reaches your usual brilliance. Absolutely cosmic!
