Poems by Gilbert Keith Chesterton
The Song of the Strange Ascetic
... Where his aunts, who are not married, ...
The Sword of Suprise
... The sins like streaming wounds, the life's brave beat ...
A Novelty
... Because they were drear and dry ...
A Wedding In War-Time
... Or break our hearts with thine hell-shattering hammer ...
The Donkey
... Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb, ...
The Last Hero
... How white their steel, how bright their eyes! I love each laughing knave, ...
The Last Masquerade
... Touched, as you turned your soft brown hair ...
The Strange Music
... Fiercer than the pain that folds you, softer than your sorrow's name ...
An Alliance
... That not till the last link breaks, ...
The Song against Grocers
... And makes her count and calls her "Miss" ...
When Fishes Flew
... Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb ...
Art Colours
... Blue for seven heavens that had sufficed, ...
The Desecraters
... Bid the grinning mummers grieve ...
Variations of an Air
... I see in you also there are movements, tremors, tears, desire for the melodious, ...
The End Of Fear
... Though the dead landscape seem a thing possessed, ...
