Poems by Edward Thomas
Dora
... To hark if still in that dark place he play'd ...
Ibant Obscur?
... Only by that strange drift-light, dim, forlorn, ...
Salve!
... And light a fire, and fan a temporal mood! So sit till morning! when the light is grown ...
Specula
... Nor think, if haply He thou seekst be late, ...
Risus Dei
... A shepherd lad Has wondering looked, and deemed that you were mad ...
Opifex
... The potter's wheel for thee, and some coarse clay!"So work, if work thou must, O humbly skilled! ...
How at Once
... When stretched in the harvest blue ...
The Bridge
... Things goodlier, lovelier, dearer, than will be or have been ...
Birds' Nests
... And grass and goose-grass seeds found soil and grew ...
And You, Helen
... What you want and want it not too late, ...
As the Clouds that are so Light
... You let fall on a heart that was dark, ...
House and Man
... One house - 'Lonely!' he said, 'I wish it were lonely' - ...
After Rain
... Uncountable Crystals both dark and bright of the the rain ...
Indwelling
... It is so small and full, there is no room for me ...
Two Pewits
... Their cry Is the one sound under the sky ...
