MIRAGE, by SARAH BIXBY SMITH Poet's Biography First Line: Shimmer, shimmer, summer air Last Line: In meadows brown and dry. Subject(s): Mirages; Wellesley College | ||||||||
SHIMMER, shimmer, summer air, Over the lowland; Shimmer, elfin lakes, Where I know the fields are bare. The far, tall trees are fringes of the sky, Ghost-gray fringes, dipping to a silver sea, A water witchery, More lovely than reality, In meadows brown and dry. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LINES WRITTEN TO A TRANSLATOR OF GREEK POETRY by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON THE LESSER BEAUTY by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON WORK by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON IN MEMORY: MISS JEWETT by GRACE ALLERTON ANDREWS HERE ENTER NOT by KATHARINE CANBY BALDERSTON I CLEANED MY HOUSE TODAY by KATHARINE CANBY BALDERSTON MY GARDEN by KATHARINE CANBY BALDERSTON |
