William Carlos Williams
Proof of Immortality
For there is one thing braver than all flowers;
Richer than clear gems; wider than the sky;
Immortal and unchangeable; whose powers
Transcend reason, love and sanity!

And thou, beloved, art that godly thing!
Marvelous and terrible! in glance
An injured Juno roused against Heaven's King!
And thy name, lovely One, is Ignorance.
