Poems by Edith Nesbit
Envoys
... Ah, send your thought sometimes to stray ...
After Death
... I have washed you, yes, with water and not with tears,-- ...
February
... The wallflower wears his heartless green ...
These Little Ones
... "From thorns and nettles I have kept it clear ...
The Golden Rose
... And the queen's pale breast is like autumn snows ...
Autumn Song
... Where Night spreads out her mighty wing ...
Inspiration
... Beneath pale moon and wind-winged skies ...
In Memoryt Of Saretta Deakin
... Thank God, our hands still hold Love's cord--and she-- ...
The Moat House
... 'Twas the old nurse who sprang to her, raised the brown-haired, dust-soiled head, ...
Indiscretion
... Laughed, frowned, and flung the flowers away ...
The Things That Matter
... What medicine's good for sores and sprains, ...
A Life's Story
... ' But the sky grows pale, and a weak wind wakes, ...
Dream-Dew
... White flower of love, lie cool against my face! ...
The Depths Of The Sea
... Worshipped his strength, the brown breast broad and bare, ...
To Rosamund
... To speed your ship of dreams to the enchanted land ...
