Hey! Crackerjack-jump! Blue water, Pink water, Swirl, flick, flitter; Snout into a wave-trough, Plunge, curl. Bow over, Under, Razor-cut and tumble. Roll, turn- Straight-and shoot at the sky, All rose-flame drippings. Down ring, Drop, Nose under, Hoop, Tail, Dive, And gone; With smooth over-swirlings of blue water, Oil-smooth cobalt, Slipping, liquid lapis lazuli, Emerald shadings, Tintings of pink and ochre. Prismatic slidings Underneath a windy sky. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AUGUST FIRST by HAYDEN CARRUTH FRAGMENTARY BLUE by ROBERT FROST THE BLACK MAMMY by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON ADELAIDE AND JOHN WILKES BOOTH by EDGAR LEE MASTERS SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: COONEY POTTER by EDGAR LEE MASTERS IN THE DAYS OF PRISMATIC COLOR by MARIANNE MOORE |
