Samuel Rogers

A face open as day.

Fresh as the welling waters.

Glimmers like a meteor.

Graceful as a faun.

Hung like a vapor in the cloudless sky.

Kindred thoughts inspire,
As summer clouds flash forth electric fire.

Light as the breeze that brushed the orient dew.

Lighter than air.

Slow as the snail.

Spring as at the shout of war.

Surely as the hours came round.

Various as human life.
