SEA VIOLET
THE white violetis scented on its stalk,the sea-violetfragile as agate,lies fronting all the windamong the torn shellson the sand-bank.
The greater blue violetsflutter on the hill,but who would change for thesewho would change for theseone root of the white sort?
Violetyour grasp is frailon the edge of the sand-hill,but you catch the light—frost, a star edges with its fire.
