PHANOPOEIA: ROSE WHITE, YELLOW, SILVER, by EZRA POUND Poem Explanation Poet Analysis Poet's Biography
First Line: The swirl of light follows me through the square
Last Line: It falls and rolls to your feet.
First Line: The swirl of light follows me through the square
Last Line: It falls and rolls to your feet.
The swirl of light follows me through the square,
The smoke of incense
Mounts from the four horns of my bed-posts,
The water-jet of gold light bears us up through the ceilings;
Lapped in the gold-coloured flame I descend through the aether.
The silver ball forms in my hand,
It falls and rolls to your feet.
