    “the bird in the poplar tree
    dreaming, his head
    tucked into
    far-and-near exile under his wing ...”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “The One remains, the many change and pass;
    Heaven’s light forever shines, Earth’s shadows fly;
    Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
    Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
    Until Death tramples it to fragments.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
