Landscape Could so small , a hiddent Grove, bear the weight of "Landscape" A slppe between banks, a stream drifting down I could, step accross, and only ankle deep. In clearest water, That I strained to hear, gently burbling between the pebbles. At the bottom of the fall, three ponds,water kissing from one, To anotherand suddenly as it had arisen disappeared Into softgreen mossy ground, too delicateto bear a foot, Without destroying its tiny floers of whate and pink.
