It wrung out the skydew dry
The spawn of the lightwarmed sky
Sopping with torrid and fast beaming ray
Sputters of wind-worn fog
Gathered from airy bog
Dripping from sea-wet and tree-wet array
Gold-spire of blue-wall height
Tyrant of summerlight
Blotted by thick-spinning drift of decay
Swelling the cockle-seed
Waking the thistle-weed
Rousing with dampness from torpid delay
Swelling the shatterpod
Springing the goldenrod
Sprung from a drifting wisp spun far away
The green-gold, the gray-blue, in rampant display

it had me until the last four or five lines...there was a catch in the rhyme or something.

swelling the shatterpod
springing the goldenrod

it bumped me off there...i was amazed i was handling the rhyme-changes so long, though.  good job.
