Many of the shorter poems in her [Amy Lowell] 'Sword Blades and Poppy Seeds', published in October 1914 betray that preoccupation with the concrete occasion which is common to both Chinese Poetry and to Imagism. There are even vividly pictoral sonnets here, like 'The Temple' and 'A Tulipan Garden', which could not have been what they were without some reference to Chinese models in their author's mind.
