God’s Whole Secret

The strokes of time have left no scar on her:
Death after death upbuilt a fairer face:
Now God’s whole secret buried within earth
Laughs in the two sunflowers of her gaze.

Out of heaven haloing each hour
She wakes the truth-gold in our limbs of lust:
Intense with a glowing absolute of life
She brings even dust the glory of being dust.
