CALIFORNIA POPPIES by MARY CAROLYN DAVIES

First Line: WITH DREAMS, AND DUST OF DREAMING, SWEET AND DIM
Last Line: AND SLENDER STEMS TO BREAK WHEN YOU HAVE DRAINED IT.
Subject(s): POPPIES;
WITH dreams, and dust of dreaming, sweet and dim,
A hill all song—Great Pan had not disdained it;
Gold cups, with sunshine rippling o'er the rim,
And slender stems to break when you have drained it.
