The Uses of Sorrow

“Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness.

It took me years to understand that this, too, was a gift.”

It was the love of love,
a love that swallows up all else,
a grateful love,
a love of nature, of people
and of animals,
a love engendering
gentleness & goodness
that moved me
and that I saw in you.

— William Carlos Williams
