Songtexte

It sifts from leaden sieves
It powders all the wood
It fills with alabaster wool
The wrinkles of the road
It makes an even face
Of mountain and of plain,—
Unbroken forehead from the east
Unto the east again
It reaches to the fence
It wraps it, rail by rail
Till it is lost in fleeces;
It flings a crystal veil
On stump and stack and stem,—
The summer’s empty room
Acres of seams where harvests were
Recordless, but for them
It ruffles wrists of posts
As ankles of a queen,—
Then stills its artisans like ghosts
Denying they have been
