First Line: Come to the park now left for dead and see

Subject(s): Parks
Come to the park now left for dead and see:
The shimmer of far shores whose smile is cool.
The startling blue of clouds whose clarity
Brightens the motley paths and every pool.
Take the deep yellow · and the velvet grey
Of birch and box · this wind remembers May ·
The tardy roses not quite withered drip
Fragrance · then pluck and touch each petalled lip ·
Nor pass these final asters' radiance ·
The purple caught in tendrils of wild vine
And what remains of green life intertwine
Lightly above the autumnal countenance ·
