A white well <br />In a black cave; <br />A bright shell <br />In a dark wave. <br /> <br />A white rose <br />Black brambles hood; <br />Smooth bright snows <br />In a dark wood. <br /> <br />A flung white glove <br />In a dark fight; <br />A white dove <br />On a wild black night. <br /> <br />A white door <br />In a dark lane; <br />A bright core <br />To bitter black pain. <br /> <br />A white hand <br />Waved from dark walls; <br />In a burnt black land <br />Bright waterfalls. <br /> <br />A bright spark <br />Where black ashes are; <br />In the smothering dark <br />One white star.<br /><br />Elinor Morton Wylie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/incantation-2/
