"Hibiscus on the Sleeping Shores" by Wallace Stevens (1921) -- I say now, Fernando, that on that day The mind roamed as a moth roams, Among the blooms beyond the open sand; And that whatever noise the motion of the waves Made on the seaweeds and the covered stones Disturbed not even the most idle ear. Then it was that that monstered moth Which had lain folded against the blue And the colored purple of the lazy sea, And which had drowsed along the bony shores, Shut to the blather that the water made, Rose up bespent and sought the flaming red Dabbled with yellow pollen - red as red As the flag above the old cafe--- And roamed there all the stupid afternoon. [The subject of the poem is boredom of an afternoon and being saved from it by focus on an experience of brilliant color.] ~ Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibiscus_on _the_Sleeping_Shores
