Marriage: John and Jacqueline

September 12, 1953

```

Lotus and Rose,

Rose and Lotus.

One by one

The petals of wonder awake.

Withered are the frowns of quivering nights,

Lingering, worrying days.

Their oneness:

Sweeter than

The children of Dawn,

Stronger than

The cloud of ignorance,

Closer than

The throbs of their hearts.

Rose in Lotus finds herself fulfilled,

Lotus discovers himself

In the dance of mounting Oneness.
