The white violet / is scented on its stalk, / the sea-violet / fragile as agate, /lies fronting all the wind / among the torn shells / on the sand-bank.
The greater blue violets
flutter on the hill,
but who would change
for
these
who would change for these
one root of the white sort?
Violet / your grasp is frail / on the edge of the sand-hill, / but you catch the light — /
frost, a star edges with its fire.
