AFTER THE SHOWER - ZaunköniG - 24.06.2007 The shower is past, ere it hath well begun. The enormous clouds are rolling up like steam Into the illimitable blue. They gleam In summits of banked snow against the sun. The old dry beds begin to laugh and run, As if 'twere spring. The trees in the wind's stir Shower down great drops, and every gossamer Glitters a net of diamonds fresh-spun. The happy flowers put on a spritelier grace, Star-fower and smilacina creamy-hued, With little spires of honey-scent and light, And that small, dainty violet, pure and white, That holds by magic in its twisted face The heart of all the perfumes of the wood. |
