Poems by Dora Sigerson Shorter
The Lepers Betrothed
... And I, my love! have robbed from you the right of love, and hope, and trust, ...
The Dean Of Santiago
... Soft wings brush past the Dean, strange sounds float up, ...
To-Morrow
... He'd break through the gates of silence, ...
Comfort The Women
... Where mothers' hearts, that are too brave to break, ...
Unrest In Autumn
... Still trills the bird, How wide the world to seek ...
A Ballad Of Marjorie
... " "Then falling tears shall make them blind ...
A Rose Will Fade
... You were always a dreamer, Rose - red Rose, ...
The Two Laws
... She crouched till dawn in the midnight streets ...
Little White Rose
... Love is more sweet than the world's fame ...
Ireland
... With the white breath of flowers, ...
The Little Brother
... O brother, brother, come quick, till you laugh with me, ...
King And Father
... When mountains belched forth their red flames to the sky, ...
Migratory Birds
... Through the warm sweet days of Spring, ...
Lady Kathleen
... Or a streamlet would laugh 'neath the hedge unshown ...
The Enchanted Lake
... Whose scornful laughter chills my heart, ...
