THE GHOSTS OF AN OLD HOUSE: VISION, by JOHN GOULD FLETCHER Poet's Biography First Line: You who flutter and quiver Last Line: Just beyond my apprehension. | ||||||||
You who flutter and quiver An instant Just beyond my apprehension; Lady, I will find the white orchid for you, If you will but give me One smile between those wayward drifts of hair. I will break the wild berries that loop themselves over the marsh-pool, For your sake, And the long green canes that swish against each other, I will break, to set in your hands. For there is no wonder like to you, You who flutter and quiver An instant Just beyond my apprehension. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ARIZONA POEMS: 4.
