The Harvest.
I could write only of the beautiful things...
Of hearts,of flowers,of wedding rings.
What's the learning in that?
It has not all been beautiful.
The truth bears it's teeth while making us suitable.
This is the lesson for those laden with pain,
Take comfort for the harvest always follows the rain.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.
Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
