Liquid as a lime tree blossom . . . .

A White Blossom


by D. H. Lawrence

A tiny moon as white and small as a single jasmine flower


Leans all alone above my window, on night’s wintry bower,


Liquid as lime-tree blossom, soft as brilliant water or rain


She shines, the one white love of my youth, which all sin cannot stain.
