OKLAHOMA PRAIRIES, by ELIZABETH COPMANN First Line: Not in the path of the brazen sun Last Line: Trails a rainbow through the grasses. Subject(s): Prairies; Plains | ||||||||
Not in the path of the brazen sun Does the spirit hover; What that great harsh eye looks upon Becomes the earth's bleached cover. Days when distances are mistful, Something rises here; something passes Hesitant and pinched and wistful -- Trails a rainbow through the grasses. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LEFT-HANDED POEM by JAMES GALVIN NO COMPLAINTS; FOR ROBERT GRENIER by ANSELM HOLLO POINT OF ROCKS, TEXAS by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE PRAIRIE HOUSES by BARBARA GUEST AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL by KATHARINE LEE BATES THE PRAIRIES by WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT TO MAKE A PRAIRIE by EMILY DICKINSON THE PRAIRIE-GRASS DIVIDING by WALT WHITMAN SYMPHONY OF THE SOIL by EVA K.
