Poems by Vachel Lindsay
Davy Jones' Door-Bell
... (Every line sung one step deeper than the line preceding) ...
The Conscientious Deacon
... But black shadows, grey shadows, green shadows come ...
My Lady Is Compared To A Young Tree
... With the youngest woodland sapling ...
What Grandpa Mouse Said
... Leave good green cheese by moonlit trees ...
Once MoreTo Gloriana
... And diamond stars, and mists that float ...
What The Snow Man Said
... The Moons a snowball, melted down ...
What The Forester Said
... Where all night long the old trees stand ...
The Dreamer
... Thence Faiths blow forth to angels ...
The Horrid Voice Of Science
... There's a mainspring to the bee ...
Parvenu
... She longs for sleep in cinders curled ...
The Beggar Speaks
... Their hearts die in their youth with neither ...
The Golden Whales Of California
... And the band-stands sound the trombone, the saxophone and xylophone ...
John Bunny, Motion Picture Comedian
... the kings jester, who died when Hamlet and Ophelia were children ...
Edwin Booth
... first impersonated Hamlet when a barnstormer in California ...
The Old Horse In The City
... Run down the street and mount the hill ...
