Fragment by Amy Lowell Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 2013

What is poetry? Is it a mosaic
         Of coloured stones which curiously are wrought
         Into a pattern? Rather glass that's taught
By patient labor any hue to take
And glowing with a sumptuous splendor, make
         Beauty a thing of awe; where sunbeams caught,
         Transmuted fall in sheafs of rainbows fraught
With storied meaning for religion's sake.
