carton vase: an analysis

Simple and fresh and fair from winter’s close emerging, As if no artifice

of fashion, business, politics has ever been. Forth from its sunny nook

I utter my song: my heart is glad.

Water of flowers foams over the earth:

When I made you, I loved you.

Now I pity you.

I gave you all you needed:

bed of earth,

blanket of blue air—

As I get further away from you I see you more clearly.

Your souls should have been immense by now,

not what they are,

small talking things—

a cute and whimsical conversation piece that serves its purpose well

Men say they know many things;

But lo! they have taken wings,—

And a thousand appliances;

The arts and sciences,

The wind that blows

Is all that anybody knows.
