Which passage from "A Blessing" most clearly supports the answer to Part A?

We step over the barbed wire into the pasture/Where they have been grazing all day, alone.

They bow shyly as wet swans. They love each other./There is no loneliness like theirs.

I would like to hold the slender one in my arms,/For she has walked over to me...

Suddenly I realize/That if I stepped out of my body I would break/Into blossom.
