Today's poem:
On the Mississippi
- by Hamlin GarlandThrough wild and tangled forests
The broad, unhasting river flows—
Spotted with rain-drops, grey with night;
Upon its curving breast there goes
A lonely steamboat's larboard light,
A blood-red star against the shadowy oaks;
Noiseless as a ghost, through greenish gleam
Of fire-flies, before the boat's wild scream—
A heron flaps away
Like silence taking flight. -
