[ Books by William Carlos Williams ]
THE BIRDS
William Carlos Williams
The world begins again!
Not wholly insufflated
the blackbirds in the rain
upon the dead topbranches
of the living tree,
stuck fast to the low clouds,
notate the dawn.
Their shrill cries sound
announcing appetite
and drop among the bending roses
and the dripping grass.
SOUR GRAPES by William Carlos Williams.
