William Carlos Williams

Metric Figure

THERE is a bird in the poplars—  
It is the sun!  
The leaves are little yellow fish  
Swimming in the river;  
The bird skims above them—      
Day is on his wings.  
Phoenix!  
It is he that is making  
The great gleam among the poplars.  
It is his singing          
Outshines the noise  
Of leaves clashing in the wind.
