The Muse who is Grace

     The words that I use,

     Are everyday words, and are not the same!

     You will not find any rhymes in my verse, or any tricks. They are
your own phrases. But there’s no phrase of yours that I don’t know
how to remake!

     These flowers are your flowers and you say that you don’t
recognize them.

     And these feet are your feet, but look how I walk on the sea and
how I tread the sea’s waters in triumph!

~Paul Claudel
