If in a Desert

True roses bloom; dust only blows away

If in a desert live we, still – we live

Summary: This world is like a desert, we must find our roses.

If in a desert live we, still, we live

And our recusant duty is to live

And plant here roses that can never die

Even if they die, for that which was still is

Immutable in life and hope and faith

By drinking not of sad ephemera

But from a clean, cool well offered to all,

With places at a Table beyond thin time

True roses bloom; dust only blows away

If in a desert live we, still – we live
