Love’s Question
Which of us is the divided one?
Which one strong?
Which supple in the wind?
Which fragile?
Which one motionless?
Which one trembles?
Who reaches out?
Who buds?
Who blossoms?
Who bears fruit?
Who withers?
Which of us is frozen?
Which radiant, rainbow?
Which of us nourishes the other?
Branches of one tree.
