THE CACTUS FLOWER.
She came to me brimming with love;
The cup of a red cactus flower filled with
dew,
The heart of a woman wonderful with color and strength and passionate sweetness,
Without reserve,
Unconditionally:
“All that I am of life and love is yours—take me!”
Ah, the redness of the cactus flower!
Ah, the heart of a woman!
Love is Life-in-Bloom—
What blossoms in your garden?
