Poems by Madison Julius Cawein
Drouth In Autumn
... To such lean leaves as haunt the brier, ...
A Niello
... Straight, barren Death stalks down the trees, ...
In The Wood
... and the hush Murmured a word of wind and rush ...
In Autumn
... And the wind will sob in the autumn tree, ...
Fragments
... Had dipped his fingers huge into the twilight's sea of gold ...
Under The Hunters Moon
... With piled-up gold of leaves the creek that cowers ...
Her Violin
... And dim and fair, with gold-brown hair, ...
The Chipmunk
... Or slower sounds of grass that creeps and creeps, ...
Unanointed
... Beneath whose heavens ruins rise, o'er which the stars burn red, ...
Omens
... In her vague light the dogwoods, vale-descried, ...
A Valentine
... Now 't is thy Frown, that comes and goes, ...
The Message Of The Lilies
... And through the moonlight, drifting, ...
Moly
... The worm-pierced fruit fall, sicklied to its syrup ...
The Nixes Song
... While, poured o'er naked ease of cool, moist limbs, ...
The Miracle Of The Dawn
... What if the East should ne'er grow wan, ...
