Poetry of Karen Van Outryve
Lilies
The lilies
In the moonlight
Hold my heart’s desire
Though passions change
From coldness to fire
To coldness again
The lilies remain.

“Lilies” says: seeing hot and cold as one in a particular instance of reality can make us more hopeful that these opposites can join within ourselves.
