Poems by William Henry Davies
A Fleeting Passion
... Thou shalt not laugh, thou shalt not romp, ...
A Great Time
... Beyond the town, where wild flowers grow -- ...
A Greeting
... Hail to you birds whose throats ...
A Plain Life
... No lifeless books -- since birds with their sweet tongues ...
Ale
... but Death, The second, hath not yet his breath ...
April's Charms
... And let a few small strawberry vlossoms come:When I go forth on such a pleasant day, ...
Charms
... When she sits still, she's like the flower ...
All in June
... I'll show the world where I have been-- ...
Come, Let Us Find
... My love-- Were lying warm in your soft breast ...
Days Too Short
... When such things are, this world too soon, ...
In May
... While birds do sing with all their might, ...
In the Country
... in this wood I hear no children cry for food ...
Joy and Pleasure
... Though pleasure's free, she cannot sing ...
Laughing Rose
... I'd make her ribbons slip their knots, ...
Leisure
... Streams full of stars, like skies at night ...
