Hissing flies the spindrift like a wind-blown smoke,

And I think of a woman and a heart I broke.

THE WILD DUCK

Twilight. Red in the west.

Dimness. A glow on the wood.

The teams plod home to rest.

The wild duck come to glean.

O souls not understood,

What a wild cry in the pool;

What things have the farm ducks seen
