(15 December 1883 – 8 August 1960 / Youngstown, Ohio)

What do you think this poem is about?

The Hummingbird

The sunlight speaks. And it's voice is a bird:

It glitters half-guessed half seen half-heard

Above the flower bed. Over the lawn ...

A flashing dip and it is gone.

And all it lends to the eye is this -

A sunbeam giving the air a kiss.
