The Rewaking by William Carlos Williams
Sooner of later
we must come to the end
of striving
to re-establish
the image the image of
the rose
but not yet
you say extending the
time indefinitely
by
your love until a whole
spring
rekindle
the violet to the very
lady’s-slipper
and so by
your love the very sun
itself is revived
