UNBORN
Within the bounds of the universe Grows a seed of its own the first Out of ecstasy life takes root Hid yet received as the silent dew. Within the bounds but unbound within A soul awakes where none had been Unfolds a world which, unconstrained Alters the place herein contained. Love is a seed which sheds its fruit Upon hard earth or indifferent brute Yet sweetens the place where grace has passed Waking our smiles like blades of grass Precious little one, who might you be Wringing the heart of its tears and glee Now for the present we wait and see Wait for the flower escaping the seed |
