DISCOVERY, by                    
First Line: Down by the moss bank
Last Line: I found the pulse of god.
Subject(s): Flowers; God; Violets


Down by the moss bank
Deep, so deep,
I found a bed of violets
Still half-asleep.

I saw small petaled faces
With wonder looking up;
I saw bees drinking honey
From every dewy cup.

I found a tiny open tomb
Deep beneath the sod;
I found more than violets:
I found the pulse of God.
