Does anyone know the poem that begins with "children in the woods play wild, secret games"? I googled it, only to find out that no one really seems to know. Some say it is from James Merrill's "Winter's Bone: Poems of Landscape," but I can't find those online at all or even which collection they'd be in.

I found the line in a book I'm reading,

Just done a search for it myself and I haven't found anything more than you have. I wonder if she made that line up? If not, I'd like to read the rest of the poem. :p
