The Load of Sugar-cane

Wallace Stevens

THE GOING of the glade-boat

Is like water flowing;

Like water flowing

Through the green saw-grass,

Under the rainbows;

Under the rainbows

That are like birds,

Turning, bedizened,

While the wind still whistles

As kildeer do,

When they rise

At the red turban

Of the boatman.
