    “It was at the time, the place, of nougats.
    There the dogwoods, the white ones and the pink ones,
    Bloomed in sheets, as they bloom, and the girl,
    A pink girl took a white dog walking.”

    “the whole field is a
    white desire, empty, a single stem;
    a cluster, flower by flower,
    a pious wish to whiteness gone over—
    or nothing.”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    ““... The state’s one function is to give.
    The bud must bloom till blowsy blown
    Its petals loosen and are strown;
    And that’s a fate it can’t evade
    Unless ‘twould rather wilt than fade.””
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
