AFTER THE RAIN, by HELEN HAYS HUTTON First Line: Silver shadows on a clean blue sky Last Line: That god mirrored heaven in this gutter pool? Subject(s): Rain | |||
Silver shadows on a clean blue sky Tinge with saffron when the rain is by; Poised aloft on a gleaming wing Drifts a bird, like a sail a-fling; Lacy leaves on a rain-washed bough Etch their pattern; I wonder, now, Was it only by chance or by some fast rule That God mirrored Heaven in this gutter pool? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DISTANT RAINFALL by ROBINSON JEFFERS CHAMBER MUSIC: 32 by JAMES JOYCE HEAVY SUMMER RAIN by JANE KENYON CROWD CORRALLING by MARGARET AVISON THE RAIN-POOL by KARLE WILSON BAKER ON THE GREAT ATLANTIC RAINWAY by KENNETH KOCH |
