Could mortal lip divine
The undeveloped freight
Of a delivered syllable,
‘T would crumble with the weight.

To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee
To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee, –
One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do
If bees are few. -
A WELL.
What mystery pervades a well!
The water lives so far,
Like neighbor from another world
Residing in a jar. -
COBWEBS.
The spider as an artist
Has never been employed
Though his surpassing merit
Is freely certifiedBy every broom and Bridget
Throughout a Christian land.
Neglected son of genius,
I take thee by the hand. -
High from the earth I heard a bird
High from the earth I heard a bird;
He trod upon the trees
As he esteemed them trifles,
And then he spied a breeze,
And situated softly
Upon a pile of wind
Which in a perturbation
Nature had left behind. -
A ROSE.
A sepal, petal, and a thorn
Upon a common summer’s morn,
A flash of dew, a bee or two,
A breeze
A caper in the trees, –
And I’m a rose!
