It's Not The Illuminations Over The Palace Poem by Mary Angela Douglas
It's Not The Illuminations Over The Palace
it's not the illuminations over the palace-
not the moment's hesitation on the
stairs-
not the dress with its thousand
crystal roses that later will
melt like snow into the air
but something you kept the golden
tree could not shake down-
something that would not be
swept away with the ashes:
full of invisible light-
