Cones

F. S. Flint

THE BLUE mist of after-rain

Fills all the trees;

The sunlight gilds the tops

Of the poplar spires, far off.

Here a branch sways

And there

a sparrow twitters.

The curtain’s hem, rose-embroidered,

Flutters, and half reveals

A burnt-red chimney-pot.

The quiet in the room

Bears patiently

A footfall on the street.
