Robert Frost - Rose Pogonias

A SATURATED meadow,
Sun-shaped and jewel-small,
A circle scarcely wider
Than the trees around were tall;
Where winds were quite excluded,
And the air was stifling sweet
With the breath of many flowers, --
A temple of the hear.

There we bowed us in the burning,
As the sun's right worship is,
To pick where none could miss them
A thousand orchises;
For though the grass was scattered,
yet every second spear
Seemed tipped with wings of color,
That tinged the atmosphere.

We raised a simple prayer
Before we left the spot,
That in the general mowing
That place might be forgot;
Or if not all so favored,
Obtain such grace of hours,
that none should mow the grass there
While so confused with flowers.

my comment is mostly for jodie and jemia. are you retarded? you are criticizing a beautiful poem and calling it gay, even though you have not read it. i suppose i just answered my own question. yes you are retarded. i guess it makes sense then that you based your opinion of this poem off a song by outkast. way to fuckin suck at life.
