Nature
Change
From Poems (1908)
Nature
Ah, there is no abiding!
Signs from heaven are sent.
Over the grass the wind went gliding,
And the green grass grew silver as he went.
Ah, there is no remaining!
Ever the tide of ocean ebbs and flows.
Over the blue sea goes the wind complaining,
And the blue sea turns emerald as he goes.
