Alfred Kreymborg, ed.  Others for 1919.  1920.
 
Before Sunrise
By William Saphier
 
BEFORE it was day
I climbed to meet the sun
half way
on the side of a mountain.
A high cool pond        5
poured down over rocks
to a slow dreamy valley
singing of new born clouds.
Facing the warm reflections
on the quiet sky        10
I bowed and kissed the dew
on the young grass.
But soon I felt guilty.
What had I done?
What is the dew        15
on young grass?
