Monet's Water Lilies
by Robert Hayden
Today as the news from Selma and Saigon poisons the air like fallout, I come again to see the serene, great picture that I love. Here space and time exist in light the eye like the eye of faith believes. The seen, the known dissolve in iridescence, become illusive flesh of light that was not, was, forever is. O light beheld as through refracting tears. Here is the aura of that world each of us has lost. Here is the shadow of its joy.

The Irish Potato Famine occurred from 1845-1849.
Achill Sound
by Hiram Larew
When the roads curve like sound and dip as if lifting to bow Whenever all thoughts round or cluster or when hearts call down is Ireland And as rich when poor was or as wise as bare heads in snow seemed and as twigs so frail broke into song and as true as any blight or potato could be was Ireland So when sand laps the senses or salt drips the edges as dreams Whenever hope streams through such heavens and moss comes home or hearts beam down is Ireland.

Tell me, is the rose naked or is that her only dress? Why do trees conceal the splendor of their roots? Who hears the regrets of the thieving automobile? Is there anything in the world sadder than a train standing in the rain?
