—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)

In a silver chain
Of evening rain,
Unravelled from the tumbling main,
And threading the eye of a yellow star:
So many times do I love again.”

Large and as lasting as thy perch of grass,
Bid us lay in gainst winter rain, and poise
Their floods with an oerflowing glass.”
