Possible Valentine

When the flowers of the future
Overcome our blindness
And the new animals then
With tongues of flame
Bring home their prophecies
And the children who survive
The holocaust of the earth
Having never believed in death
Gather to play and sing
Their sparrow songs of praise
And quiet lamentation
Then maybe suddenly you'll recall
This day when you denied
The possibility of love's perfection
