Alfred Kreymborg, ed.  Others for 1919.  1920.
 
Joy
By Jeanne d’Orge
 
HE swings upon the high green boughs of life
Up to the stars and down.
    Curious about the noisy earth
He parts the leaves to look.
He has the face of a child        5
    Aloof and whimsical
Hearing the slow complaint
Of rheumatism and old age.
Mischief clears the puzzled brows
    He shakes the tree…        10
Oh the glittering scented shower…
Oh the enraptured quiet….
