    To what purpose, April, do you return again?
    Beauty is not enough.

    Her mane falls wild on her forehead,
    And the light breeze moves me to caress her long ear
    That is delicate as the skin over a girl’s wrist.
    Suddenly I realize
    That if I stepped out of my body I would break
    Into blossom.
    —James Wright (1927–1980)

    And mother almost always sighs,
    When father carves the duck.
    Then all of us prepare to rise,
    And hold our bibs before our eyes,
    And be prepared for some surprise,
    When father carves the duck.
    —Ernest Vincent Wright Wotton (1872–1939)
