UNTOLD

Cale Young Rice

Could I, a poet, Implant the truth of you, Seize it and sow it As Spring on the world.

There were no need To fling ( forsooth ) of you Fancies that only lovers heed! No, but unfurled,

The bloom, the sweet of you, ( As unto me they are opened oft ) Would with their beauty's breath repeat of you All that my heart breathes loud or soft!
