“THE WILD ROSE”
Sometimes, hidden from me in daily custom and in ritual
I live by you unaware, as if by the beating of my heart.
Suddenly you flare again in my sight
A wild rose at the edge of the thicket
where yesterday there was only shade
And I am blessed and choose again,
That which I chose before.”
