Quote of the day: The Bloom Of The Year

All the breath and the bloom of the
Year in the bag of one bee:
All the wonder and wealth of the mine in
The heart of one gem:

In the core of one pearl all the shade and the
Shine of the sea:
Breath and bloom, shade and shine, - wonder
Wealth, and – how far above them-
Truth, that’s brighter than gem,
Trust, that’s purer than pearl, -
Brightest trust, purest trust in the universe-
All were for me
In the kiss of one girl.

Robert Browning ( 1812)

Yes, this quote is about spring, but what else is it about?
Do you think it’s about love, a girl, or even a garden?
