\nas you contemplate the gentle lake
\nand do your best to translate
\nthe poetry of the crows,
\nyou can hear against a small wind
\nthe drawing-room piano.<\/p>\n
\ncalled L\u2019Ondine<\/em>,
\na piece which wears
\nan Edwardian bathing costume
\nand leaves a pool of water
\non the parquet floor.<\/p>\n
\nwill stand and wave at you
\nwith one of her complicated waves
\nbefore she slips away
\npolitely
\nfrom the French windows.<\/p>\n
