Nomad Exquisite
- As the immense dew of Florida
- Brings forth
- The big-finned palm
- And green vine angering for life,
-
- As the immense dew of Florida
- Brings forth hymn and hymn
- From the beholder,
- Beholding all these green sides
- And gold sides of green sides,
-
- And blessed mornings,
- Meet for the eye of the young alligator,
- And lightning colors
- So, in me, come flinging
- Forms, flames, and the flakes of flames.
From Collected Poems, 1923.
