Stifling with heat the cool morning's struggles
No water, but that which my flute pours, murmurs
To the grove sprinkled with melodies: and the sole breeze
Out of the twin pipes, quick to breathe
Before it scatters the sound in an arid rain,
Is unstirred by any wrinkle of the horizon,
The visible breath,
artificial

Of inspiration returning to heights unseen.

In the hazy sunshine, the garden remembers April,
The drench of rains and a snow-drop quick and clear as a spark;

And golden tulips, goblets holding the rain--
The garden will be hushed with snow, forgotten soon, forgotten--
