"Poem by Calway Kinnel."

"St Francis and the sow."

The bud
Stands for all things,
Even for those things that don't flower,
For everything flowers from with of self-blessing;
Though sometimes it is necessary
To reteach a thing its loveliness,
To put a hand on the browOf the flower,
And retell it in words and in touch,
It is lovely
Until it flowers again from within,
Of self blessing.
