NOT FROM HER WORDS, by MIRIAM VEDDER

NOT from her words will you be made more wise,
Nor will reproaches meet you in her eyes;
Though all her house be dust, you will not know,
By any sign from her, that it is so.
For she has taught her heart to be as still
As windless leaves against an evening hill.
