Foundku: Gatsby Series - Another trio

With the 100th anniversary of the publication of "The Great Gatsby" exercising the synapses with a rereading, it was originally read in school many years ago, I am finding unintentional sherku in Fitzgerald's writing.  Unintentional simply because I was not anywhere near him at that time or era, nor had the sherku idea occurred to me so I could share it, and he could write accordingly.
 
 

Reach me a rose

honey, and pour me

a last drop

into that there

crystal glass

 

the first time

in its first wild 

promise of 

all the mystery 

and the beauty

 

A universe 

of ineffable 

gaudiness 

spun itself 

out in his brain
