Cold, wet leaves
Floating on moss-coloured water
And the croaking of frogs-
Cracked bell-notes in the twilight.
Amy Lawrence Lowell (1874 – 1925) was an American poetess that belonged to the informal imagist, an early modernist movement, which promoted a return to classical values. She posthumously won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1926.
