THE WISCONSIN LITERARY XAGAZINE CARMEN COMES HARLRIETi MAXON, 11 A silvered laugh, A half-breathed song, A sudden pause In the gay-clad throng. The smoke-wreathed sparks Of the cigarettes, Then-the far cling-clink Of the castanettes. A mocking pair Of half-veiled eyes; Smooth-curving lips Where the wine's red lies. Through the mists of smoke A fire-spark shows In her hair's dull cloud A heart-red rose. A light strain wakes To match her dance, A heart's chord breaks At each wayward glance. 62
