Poems by Paul Laurence Dunbar
Retort
... Then my heart spoke out with a right bold air: ...
The Bohemian
... What is the chief who shall my garments plan ...
Love's Seasons
... When the winds are moaning o'er the meadows chill and gray, ...
A Cabin Tale
... "Well, fren' Bah, we _ain't_ been fren's, ...
Dream Song I
... Oh, naught that surely is, and naught that seems ...
The Turning Of The Babies In The Bed
... " So she shakes 'em, an' she twists 'em, an' she tu'ns 'em 'roun' erbout, ...
A Christmas Folksong
... It's goin' to be a green Christmas ...
A Border Ballad
... 'Twas the hand o' MacPherson that gave him the blow, ...
To A Captious Critic
... Right wisely would I rule that dull estate-- ...
After Many Days
... And bought a loaf of bread and sought ...
Ione
... My heart by some vague thrill was shaken, ...
Circumstances Alter Cases
... O chone! Faith the two is comin' back an' their walk is all over, ...
Night
... What floods come o'er the spirit's bar, ...
What's The Use
... Frowns lay out the road fur smilin' ...
She Gave Me A Rose
... 'T was a rhyme in life's prose ...
