Seen Valentine

What hard feelings I wonder
Does the mollusk remember
Around her nougat center
 
The single inner life of each mollusk
Is indivisible and inseparable
From her whole constitution
 
The alchemists claimed
It was Venus
Not to be intruded upon
 
And not to be neglected
The Platonists named her
Star of the sea
 
I think there is nothing
She has not seen
And still she returns
