Poems by Katharine Lee Bates
Out Of Siberia
... Shuffling feet that miss the chain, ...
Starlight At Sea
... Our cities glimpse the stars, their luster scoffed ...
In The Oak
... Would find, coaxed by a wistful call, ...
Marching Feet
... Beyond the seas, in these hushed hills we dread ...
To My Country
... God looketh through Love's eyes, whose vision clear ...
Freedom's Battle-Song
... Peace enchained, crushed, profaned, shall yet in beauty stand, ...
Fodder For Cannon
... Those bright, unblemished ones, ...
Spain
... Pomegranates flushed with Spain ...

... Where after the shock and the rending she should moor at the wharf of sleep ...
The Cry
... Roar of cannon, shriek of shells, toll of earthward-crashing bells, ...
Robins Secret
... Who hath stirred the scented petals, peeping in where robins dwell ...
In A Northern Wood
... Rueful hemlocks, gaunt and old, with boughs a-droop, despairing, ...
To Our President
... For a white shield of mercy, torch that throws ...
