Offering
I seek no token of you dear I only ask to giveThe purple flower of my heart And you will let it live.
I ask no fealty or plight, I only pray that youMay find earth's barren places bright Perhaps, because it grew.
And when for you the final sun Moves toward the darkening West,I shall be lingering to place Love's flower on your breast.
