INSPIRATION, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Life - death in a drop of dew
Last Line: A whole round world for a thrush to sip!
Subject(s): Dew; Life


LIFE -- Death in a drop of dew;
And a prism to sift a sunbeam through.

Fragile, perfect, briefly bright,
A tremulous miracle of light;

Beauty poised on a flower-tip;
A whole round world for a Thrush to sip!
