| Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936). Poetry: A Magazine of Verse. 1912–22. | | | | Cloud-loved | | By Lyon Sharman |
| | From “Designs in Chinese Color”
FAR up the side of White-cloud Mountain | |
| A deep pool lies, | |
| Content in every change of weather | |
| To reflect the skies; | |
| Fed by the grace of heaven from seeping little springs; | 5 |
| Mirror of pointed firs, solace of eagles’ wings. | |
| |
| And yet the water of the cloud-loved pool | |
| Breaks foaming from the quiet hills away, | |
| To add its trickle to an oceanful, | |
| Flooding, storming, mocking every day. | 10 | | | |
