Kings long since dead.

Wind-blown pools where no herbs grow,

Streams lost and sunk in the depths below,

Where scant flowers bloom, where few birds sing,

Thou, thou fliest alone, thou fire-winged thing!

Small speck of red!

A GARDEN

High upon this bleak cliff where the wild wind dashes

Grows that little garden which my soul loves best,

Filled with flower faces, white, and blue, and yellow,
