Love Song - William Carlos Williams in Al Que Quiere!

Daisies are broken
petals are new of the day
stems lift to the grass tops
they catch on shoes
part in the middle
leave the roots and leaves secure

Black branches 
carry square leaves
to the wood’s top.
They hold firm
break with a roar
show the white!

Your moods are slow
the shedding of leaves
and sure
the return in May!

We walked
in your father’s grove
and saw the great oaks lying with roots
ripped from the ground.
