The Act

The Act
By: William Carlos Williams (1883 - 1963)

There were the roses, in the rain.
Don't cut them, I pleaded.
.................They won't last, she said.
But they're so beautiful
..................where they are.
Agh, we were all beautiful once, she
.................. said,
and cut them and gave them to me
..................in my hand.
