Intrusion

Maxwell BodenheimContemplative

The lilies sag with rain-drops: Their petals hold fire that does not break out. (As though it slept between vapor-silk It could not burn). And a young breeze stumbles upon the lilies And strokes them with his spinning hands.... The lilies and the young breeze are not unlike Your silence and the rush of soft words breaking it.
