Explore "Gossamer" by Georgia Douglas Johnson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The peerless boon of innocence, / The first in nature's list, / Is fading, ere the rising sun / The world awake has kist.
The early dew upon the grass, / The purity of morn, / The glint that lies in virgin cheek, / Frail cobwebs -- of the dawn.
