IRRADIATIONS: 7, by JOHN GOULD FLETCHER Poet's Biography
First Line: Flickering of incessant rain
Last Line: Dripping from the eaves.
First Line: Flickering of incessant rain
Last Line: Dripping from the eaves.
Flickering of incessant rain
On flashing pavements:
Sudden scurry of umbrellas:
Bending, recurved blossoms of the storm.
The winds came clanging and clattering
From long white highroads whipping in ribbons up summits:
They strew upon the city gusty wafts of apple-blossom,
And the rustling of innumerable translucent leaves.
Uneven tinkling, the lazy rain
Dripping from the eaves.
