Spreads the ice sheet on the shaven lawn;
Signing an annual permit for the frost....”

but in joy create for others the house, the poem, the game of

I saw how in its radiance would grow and be nourished and suddenly
burst into terrible and splendid bloom
the blood-red flower of revolution.”
—Dudley Randall (b. 1914)
