Rivers to the Sea
Villa Serbelloni, Bellaggio

by Sara Teasdale

The fountain shivers lightly in the rain,
The laurels drip, the fading roses fall, 
The marble satyr plays a mournful strain
That leaves the rainy fragrance musical.


Oh dripping laurel, Phoebus sacred tree,
Would that swift Daphne's lot might come to me,
Then would I still my soul and for an hour
Change to a laurel in the glancing shower.
