Poems by William Barnes
Slow To Come, Quick Agone
... An' there woonce sounded zongs an' teäles ...
Angels By The Door
... The day that's mild, the day that's stern, ...
The Railroad
... Zoo while our life do last, mid nought ...
The Ivy
... The creepèn sheäde mid steal too soon ...
Nannys Cow
... That he mus' leäve his ground, an' peärt ...
The Bells Ov Alderburnham
... Woonce rung to bless their mother's love, ...
Polly Be-en Upzides Wi Tom
... Zome nice sharp stwones, all fresh a-crack'd ...
I Got Two Vields
... The hedge, do ring the blackbird's zong ...
Zummer An' Winter
... The pride o' Lea, as naighbours thought her, ...
The Scud
... Both big an' small, the whole day drough ...
The Stwonen Bwoy Upon The Pillar
... Their scroff to build their nest in Spring, ...
Things Do Come Round
... Drough life's feäir sheäpes to big an' tall, ...
Pity
... Oh! when the new-born child, the e'th's new guest, ...
Daniel Dwithen, The Wise Chap
... An' wi' their vingers spann'd their size, ...
In The Spring
... An' meäke o' the deäisys' white flowers ...
