This next poem takes the structured form of a sonnet.  This poet, both a writer and artist, was an important figure in the Harlem Renaissance.  Crocuses are still awhile off around here.  Happy reading!

“Some things are very dear to me –

Such things as flowers bathed by rain

Or patterns traced upon the sea

Or crocuses where snow has lain …”
