The seven sister-poplars who go softly in a line;
And I think my heart is whiter for its parley with a star
That trembled out at nightfall and hung above the pine.
The call-note of a redbird from the cedars in the dusk
Woke his happy mate within me to an answer free and fine;
And a sudden angel beckoned from a column of blue smoke—
Lord, who am I that they should stoop—these holy folk of thine?
I love the CG quote today……. Because it happens to me every time I look up at the giant Poplars in our forest.
Thanks. I must admit I do not care for single line quotes taken from the whole. Without the context they often make no sense at all.
PS: No ping for the rest of the gang?
