lily of the valley
“I am only a little rose
or autumn crocus of the plain of Sharon,
or a [humble] lily of the valleys
[that grows in deep and difficult places].”
- Song of Solomon 2:1 AMP
“Youth is the time when all seems to be
within the grasp of the careful student.
I have left that time behind.
‘I don’t know’ is on my lips more often now.
But so also is ‘God knows!’ –
not as a thoughtless expression in conversation,
but as the conviction of my heart.”
