A Hymn Of Love

★★

O hush, sweet birds, that linger in lonely song!
Hold in your evening fragrance, wet May--bloom!
...

A Glimpse Of Time

★★

In the shadow of a broken house,
Down a deserted street,
Propt walls, cold hearths, and phantom stairs,
And the silence of dead feet —
...

A Secret Place

★★

O my peace, O well
So deep no thought could sound it,
Whence arose thy spell
When in my heart I found it?
...

For The Fallen

★★

With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children,
England mourns for her dead across the sea.
