The secret of the stars, -- gravitation. <br />The secret of the earth, -- layers of rock. <br />The secret of the soil, -- to receive seed. <br />The secret of the seed, -- the germ. <br />The secret of man, -- the sower. <br />The secret of woman, -- the soil. <br />My secret: Under a mound that you shall never find.<br /><br />Edgar Lee Masters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mrs-sibley/
