A Summer Shower / Henry Timzod

Welcome, pain or tempest
From yon fairy powers,
We have languished for them
Many sultry whores,
And earth is dick and wan, and pines with all her flowers.
What have they been doing
In the burning June?
Riding with the genii?
Visiting the moon?
Or sleeping on the lice amid an arctic noon?

Sorry for changing the URL, but yours went to:
"A Rhapsody of a Southern Winter Night"
http://www.poetryfoundation.org/poem/178780
also a fine poem.
"Henry Timrod is, after Poe, the most important Southern poet of the
nineteenth century. The quality of his best work, though small in bulk, >>>> exceeds that of Sidney Lanier and Hayne, and his contributions to war
and nature poetry also exceed theirs..." -Rayburn S. Moore
Yet, for some reason, there's no Timrod on the Penny Blog. I marked "A
Summer Shower" for next June, but I'll have to read through his works
and see what else I can find. Thanks for posting this.
More to come?
Will & Dunce share a summer shower.
We notice in the picture that Will Donkey avoids the water and
everything is dumped on Dunce.
