Seem things in some procession of the dead

What does seem mean in “Seem things in some procession of the dead” in Sunday Morning By WALLACE STEVENS poem?

Answer

A fuller quote showing the whole sentence.

The pungent oranges and bright, green wings
Seem things in some procession of the dead,
Winding across wide water, without sound.

Perhaps “seem” is a shortened form of “seem like” or “seem to be”.
