Explore "In the quiet garden world" by Bliss Carman on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
In the quiet garden world, / Gold sunlight and shadow leaves / Flicker on the wall.
And the wind, a moment since, / With rose-petals strewed the path / And the open door.
Now the moon-white butterflies / Float across the liquid air, / Glad as in a dream;
And, across thy lover's heart, / Visions of one scarlet mouth / With its maddening smile.
