Love-In-A-Mist













Because love surrounds like a field
and cannot be touched but everywhere touches,
and makes only the occasional blossom,
but remains through winter’s
persistent night a spiritual flower;
death’s adversary in a concealed struggle,
I leave it to the earth
that pulls me down impatiently.
Mother, why are you in such a hurry?
