from The Art of Poetry
This green twilight has violet borders.
Yellow butterflies
Nervously transferring themselves
From scarlet to bronze flowers
Disappear as the evening appears.

Surprise them, as one surprises a tree
By regarding its (shall I say?)
By regarding its (shall I say?)
Facets of copiousness.
– Charles Tomlinson (1955)
