> What would the world be, once bereft
Of wet and of wildness? Let them be left,
O let them be left, wildness and wet;
Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet.
This poem comes to mind with #Yeats talking about #WilliamMorris and #Habundia,
#TheGreenTree #TheWetStones of the well. The life-loving #poets try to replace the #DeadTree of the cross with a #LivingTree of Nature: replace death and torture with Abundance.
