GREY spring day And a grey sky, Like flocks of sheep and lambs The low clouds lie. South wind, a shepherd, Quietly masses Tender flocks and herds To the grey grasses. Like a kind shepherd, To the grey hill, Drives his flocks and herds The way he will. Sward grey as dew Sudden discloses Glimpse of tender gold, Ashes of roses. Through the mild country, Grey as a dove, Clouds like sheep and lambs Quietly rove. Low gleam the pastures Of the low sky; Like sheep and lambs at rest The grey clouds lie. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BRUTUS AND ANTONY by EDGAR LEE MASTERS PRECIOUS WORDS by EMILY DICKINSON THE RUBAIYAT, 1879 EDITION: 48 by OMAR KHAYYAM THE GRAPE-VINE SWING by WILLIAM GILMORE SIMMS FIRST-DAY THOUGHTS by JOHN GREENLEAF WHITTIER THE LOVE SONNETS OF PROTEUS: 101.
