Random Question About Jan Lit SAT II

Archive SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>This is directed at those who took the January SAT II in Literature.</p>

<p>There was a passage on there about a three-piece poem called “The Climate of Our Lives” or “The Climate of Our Poetry”. Pretty much, it was “The Climate of Our __________”.
It was about innocence and the central image was a bowl of water.</p>

<p>I’ve been searching desperately for this poem, but I can’t find it anywhere!
Does anyone know the actual name of the poem? Or even its author (not given on the test)?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>I didn’t take the Jan Lit test, but I took the one in May 2007, which was exactly the same. </p>
