Poems by Dora Sigerson Shorter
When I Shall Rise
... Waving their joyful hands as once they stoodAs once they stood! ...
The Mother
... " "Ho!" said the child, "how the proud horses shake ...
Nora
... Shy as the wind soft singing from the South! ...
How Long Wilt Thou Love Me?
... To the faint heart Death to see, love that is Eternity, ...
A Moth
... Go forth, foolish fly, for your life's sake, ...
Eclipse
... Give wine for its hot veins, fame for its throne, and laughter for its lips, ...
My Neighbors Garden
... And thenI'll steal my neighbour's fruit ...
Sick I Am And Sorrowful
... Laughing with the children there, I would sing and dance once more, ...
In Wintry Weather
... The storms, with all their thunder, ...
An Imperfect Revolution
... Seared flesh, shrieked out their patient years of pain, ...
The Wind on the Hills
... When the wind is loud, they sighing ...
The Human Touch
... Thanked God she made roses still for pretty ladies' wear, ...
Jeanne Bras
... Then they rose in their grave-clothes, all stiff and all chill, ...
A Fantasy
... While wild beech-leaves round and round her spread ...
Beware
... That had my garden for its goal, ...
