Nature Appoints the Sun
and there is Astronomy
but Nature cannot make Love
and there is Astrology.

It seems to me the Grass is happy
To grow during Intermission
but summarily dismissed it is
at Summer's discretion.

Take away everything
but that thing worth thievery -
Immortality

A certain Ray I save
of an Extraordinary Light -
To aid me in my Quest
and Clarify my Sight.

The sorry "why" of love
is all that love can speak
but with that single syllable
the biggest hearts it breaks

- e. dickinson aprés Claire Malroux et moi

The Vanity of all that is Earthly
Is the Refrain that Nature Sings
for She Blesses with her Beauty -
yet undoes Every Thing.

- e. dickinson aprés Claire Malroux et moi

Dark was his heart - as a night without stars
though She possessed a Morning in her Eyes -
But in that Black Container
No Dawn could arise.
