Eric G. Thompson's 'Spring City House' and Robert Frost's 'A Boundless Moment'
A Boundless Moment Robert Frost
He halted in the wind, and — what was that Far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost? He stood there bringing March against his thought, And yet too ready to believe the most.
“Oh, that’s the Paradise-in-bloom,” I said; And truly it was fair enough for flowers had we but in us to assume in march Such white luxuriance of May for ours.
We stood a moment so in a strange world, Myself as one his own pretense deceives; And then I said the truth (and we moved on). A young beech clinging to its last year’s leaves.
