To the not impossible him
How shall I know, unless I go
To Cairo or Cathay,
Whether or not this blessed spot
Is blest in every way?
Now it may be, the flower for me
Is this beneath my nose,
How shall I tell, unless I smell
The Carthaginian rose?
The fabric of my faithful love
No power shall dim or ravel
Whilst I stay here, but oh, my dear,
If I should ever travel!
~Edna St. Vincent Millay
