Cranbrook VI: Orpheus Fountain (Milles)

A Song; pure and clean,

anguishes those who sense it

yet are Unhearing

Cranbrook V: Triton Fountain and Art Museum Peristyle (master plan: Saarinen) (sculpture: Milles)

Even Nature yields;

Winter’s nod to Form awaits

Summer’s wild blooms

Cranbrook IV: Orpheus Fountain (Milles)

Figures strain forward;

an exquisite aria

pleads for attention

Triton Pools at Cranbrook II (master plan: Saarinen) (sculpture: Milles)

Sea serpents follow

one another in pointless

pursuit: anchored thus

Triton Pools at Cranbrook I (master plan: Saarinen) (sculpture: Milles)

Leaves skitter across

an empty pond-bed – Dancing

to Spring’s early Song
