Classic and Contemporary Poetry


WHIMSEY by LUCILE HARGROVE REYNOLDS

First Line: THE GOLDEN GARMENT OF THE SUN
Last Line: TANGLED IN THE SEDGE!

The golden garment of the sun
Trails over stone and tree:
No eager hand may finger it
Or hoard it yearningly.
Yet, on a cloud-hung day, I saw,
Down by the river's edge,
A fragment of the lively stuff
Tangled in the sedge!
