Green, blue, yellow and red-
God is down in the swamps and marshes,
Sensational as April and almost incredible
the flowering of our catharsis.
A humble scene in a backward place
Where no one important ever looked;
The raving flowers looked up in the face
Of the One and the Endless, the Mind that has baulked
The profoundest of mortals. A primrose, a violet,
A violent wild iris
‘The One’ - PATRICK KAVANAGH
