Carl Sandburg (1878–1967). Smoke and Steel. 1922.
V. Mist Forms11. Three Violins
T
The piece is MacDowell’s Wild Rose.
And the time of the wild rose
And the leaves of the wild rose
And the dew-shot eyes of the wild rose
Sing in the air over three violins.
Somebody like you was in the heart of MacDowell.
Somebody like you is in three violins.
