Poems by Siegfried Sassoon
Night on the Convoy
... In the stark Danger of life at war, they lie so still, ...
Battalion-Relief
... More rain: the lightning blinks, and thunder rumbles ...
In Barracks
... The barrack-square, washed clean with rain, ...
Morning-Land
... At cock-crow chime out three and four, ...
Stretcher Case
... If I were dead, he mused, thered be no thinking ...
At Carnoy
... Crouched among thistle-tufts Ive watched the glow ...
To a Very Wise Man
... Im but a bird at dawn that cries chink, chink ...
Nimrod in September
... His horses hoofs thud hither and about: ...
Editorial Impressions
... Youve gathered big impressions! grinned the lad ...
The Road
... All ruts and stones and sludge, and the emptied dregs ...
Before Day
... When earth is no more mine though night goes out, ...
To Leonide Massine in Cleopatra
... Four long years past, discovering pride and power ...
Goblin Revel
... With flutes to brisk their feet across the floor, ...
Arcady Unheeding
... Wide wealds of blue beyond their windy lea, ...
Prelude to an Unwritten Masterpiece
... Why cant you cut it short, you pompous blighter ...
