Poems by Wilfrid Scawen Blunt
The Stricken Hart
... And love, some say, has conquered Heaven ...
The Idlers Calendar. Twelve Sonnets For The Months. May
... I love the ``greetings in the market--place,'' ...
The Mockery of Life
... ughtOf each poor brain, as dissolution nears,Is not of fair life lost, of Heaven boughtAnd glory won ...
On Her Vanity
... ne:The sympathy of shop-boys who would weepTheir shilling's worth of woe in any cause,At any tragedy ...
On the Shortness of Time
... wild flowers rangeFrom blue to yellow and from red to greyIn natural sequence as the seasons change ...
The Sublime
... fled tremulous roar,Borne on the wind an instant, and then goneBack to the caverns of the middle air ...
To One on her Birthday
... Your life's wayHas passed already far beyond our guess,Who only watch and wait for you and pray ...
