First Line: Then if any sculptor had / captured in mid-spring
Last Line: "you'd have said ""that's kipling."
Subject(s): Kipling, Rudyard (1865-1936)
THEN if any sculptor had
captured in mid-spring
father-wolf with one great pad,
grimly threatening
Mowgli, smiling bare and bold,
and cast them, softly stippling
bronze with leaves, half-green, half-gold,
you'd have said "That's Kipling."
