Karle Wilson Baker Hair Poems
- 1. Poet's Song
Droppâ??d feather from the wings of God
My little songs and snatches are,
So light He does not hear them fall
As He goes by, from star to star.
... - 2. A Clear Night
I have worn this day as a fretting, ill-made garment,
Impatient to be rid of it.
And lo, as I drew it off over my shoulders
This jewel caught in my hair.
... - 3. Days
Some days my thoughts are just cocoons-all cold, and dull, and blind,
They hang from dripping branches in the grey woods of my mind;
And other days they drift and shine-such free and flying things!
