Margaret Atwood Water Poems
- 1. This Is A Photograph Of Me
It was taken some time ago
At first it seems to be
a smeared
print: blurred lines and grey flecks
... - 2. A Visit
Gone are the days
when you could walk on water.
When you could walk.
... - 3. Night Poem
There is nothing to be afraid of,
it is only the wind
changing to the east, it is only
your father the thunder
... - 4. The Shadow Voice
My shadow said to me:

... - 5. Death Of A Young Son By Drowning
He, who navigated with success
the dangerous river of his own birth
once more set forth
... - 6. The Circle Game
The children on the lawn
joined hand to hand
go round and round
