I

by (1881–1907)

Listen in the reader

Sweet grasses, tasseled, bent and tall; And sweet last light across the meadow-- The wind has tangled, left them all In webs of green, in silver shadow.

And to your speech my heart replies, Still silvering to each word that passes, Until a tangled joy it lies, A shining web of wind-blown grasses.
