an almost accidental gathering of poets
 
   
 
 
Sylvia Plath
 (1965)
Poppies In October
Even the sun-clouds this morning cannot manage such skirts.
Nor the woman in the ambulance
Whose red heart blossoms through her coat so astoundingly-

A gift, a love gift
Utterly unasked for
By a sky

Palely and flamily
Igniting its carbon monoxides, by eyes
Dulled to a halt under bowlers.

O my god, what am I
That these late mouths should cry open
In a forest of frost, in a dawn of cornflowers.
