What be visages without
freckles? Landscaper could not know
What sunbursts would dreamers' backs
bed if so removed?
For--simple grass tickles no fancies, and
inspires no desire

If sunshine be the generic flower's weed,--
--let me be earthworm, insect, mole
vermin for gardener's obloquy

--Gardeners! Shower me with thy debris,
for such fireworks are my gemstones
