The Moon’s a White Tulip
The moon’s a white tulip, A calyx cup Of creamy petals Curving up. Of petals slowly Falling apart, Loosing the spiced flame Of its heart. Of petals falling apart To spill Pollen dust On valley and hill. The moon’s a white tulip. A gold winged star Is a bee come to loot The honey jar. —Ethel Romig Fuller.
