To Ralph Waldo Emerson

Title:     To Ralph Waldo Emerson
Author: Richard Le Gallienne [More Titles by Le Gallienne]

Poet, whose words are like the tight-packed seed
Sealed in the capsule of a silver flower,
Still at your art we wonder as we read,
The art dynamic charging each word with power.

Seeds of the silver flower of Emerson:
One, on the winds to Scotland brought, did sink
In Carlyle's heart; and one was lately blown
To Belgium, and flowered in--Maeterlinck.

[The end]
Richard Le Gallienne's poem: To Ralph Waldo Emerson
