What reading level is Green Leaves book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The thin, dark workers, burned as though with fire, Swaying in pallid sleep, and pinched with want, Are not so pitiful, so stark as these.
THE DREAM IS it not strange that in this costly silk, As exquisite as a flower, I should be sad? Upon my breast is lace like moonlit haze Of blossoms. See ! the folds as white as milk Across my shoulders, and my gems ablaze.
Last night I dreamed . . . And now I know . . .
They came A ghostly crowd of girls with eyes too bright And wistful. Ah ! I could not h...ide my tears ! One child, as vivid as a slender flame, Was fashioning June roses with her shears; Their crimson petals left her young lips white.
Another little one with hands as pale, As the soft, misty lace her touch caressed, Wove all her star-like loves and fantasies Into its web until its beauty frail Was part of her; but yet, with aged knees This little one crept homeward dimly drest.
Ah, God ! A third with hair as bright as corn, Who flashed her slender needle in a dream, Looked up at me.
