Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
Nocturne
By Glenn Ward Dresbach
 
CLOUDS, piled up like the dunes
  In a world that cried for rain,
Shifted by winds that shifted
  The dunes themselves in the night,
Came from the night and drifted        5
  Into the night again!
 
Dreams, restless as the dunes
  Where things that were remain—
Buried while the winds shifted
  Or brought once more to sight—        10
Wandered from you and drifted
  Back to you again.
