A CURIOUS THING, by CAROLINE M. LORD First Line: My mind, it seems, is only Last Line: Of grass and sepal fold. Subject(s): Reason; Intellect; Rationalism; Brain; Mind; Intellectuals | ||||||||
My mind, it seems, is only A sequence of events, Or wave of probability With characteristic bents. I'm sure I feel atomic With moleculish wings To wander with at random And elude all grasping things. I frequently ascend Upon a milkweed down, Or aerate my mental state By resting on your frown. Sometimes my mind is anchored With an immortal hold Upon the warm green wonder Of grass and sepal fold. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AGAINST EXCESS OF SEA OR SUN OR REASON by WILLIAM MEREDITH PROVISION FOR THE HIGHER OZONE BODY by WILL ALEXANDER THE BOOK OF THE DEAD MAN (#65) by MARVIN BELL THE MACHINATIONS OF THE MIND by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR WHY FOOL AROUND? by STEPHEN DOBYNS POPHAM OF THE NEW SONG: 1 by NORMAN DUBIE MARYLAND MUD by CAROLINE M.
