TAMALPAIS, SELECTION, by                    
First Line: The hollow moon, and up between
Last Line: With dusty purple of the grape.
Subject(s): Tamalpais, Mount (california)


The hollow moon, and up between
An oak with yard-long mosses, green
In sunlight, now as dull as crêpe;
The mountain softened in its shape,
Its perfect symmetry attained—
And swathed in velvet folds, and stained
With dusty purple of the grape.
