Ghazal of Rumi
© Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi
The power of love came into me,
and I became fierce like a lion,
then tender like the evening star.
Golf Luck
© Edgar Albert Guest
As a golfer I'm not one who cops the money;
I shall always be a member of the dubs;
Girl At Midnight
© Weldon Kees
But I must dream once more of cities burned away,
Corrupted wood, and silence on the piers.
Love is a sickroom with the roof half gone
Where nights go down in a continual rain.
Girl Graduates
© William Schwenck Gilbert
These are the phenomena
That every pretty domina
Hopes that we shall see
At this Universitee!
Ghazal 6
© Daagh Dehlvi
dil le k muft kahte hain kuch kam ka nahin
ulti shikayaten rahi ehsan to gaya
God permit industrious angels
© Emily Dickinson
God permit industrious angels
Afternoons to play.
I met one, - forgot my school-mates,
All, for him, straightaway.
Gipsy Mothers Song
© Arthur Symons
I gather the crackling sticks in the wood,
And I roast the hedgehog over the fire;
My little one shall have dainty food,
As much as her little heart can desire.
Gray
© Charles Harpur
The loud, apt epithet, applying sure;
The dim-drawn image, artfully obscure;
The perfect stanza, framed of words as choice
And round as pearls, yet liquid to the voice;
A pith of phrase, and musical array
Of numbers;these are the prime charms of Gray.
Gift Of Silence
© Robert Laurence Binyon
Far below rises to the horizon rim
The silent sea. Above, those gray clouds pile;
But through them tremblingly escape, like bloom,
Like buds of beams, for sleepy mile on mile,
Wellings of light, as if heaven had not room
For the hidden glory and must overbrim.
Gray Fog
© Sara Teasdale
A FOG drifts in, the heavy laden
Cold white ghost of the sea
One by one the hills go out,
The road and the pepper-tree.
Green
© Paul Verlaine
See, blossoms, branches, fruit, leaves I have brought,
And then my heart that for you only sighs;
With those white hands of yours, oh, tear it not,
But let the poor gift prosper in your eyes.
Genesis BK XXI
© Caedmon
(ll. 1400-1406) But no harm came nigh unto the ark, save that it
was lifted up to heaven, when the flood destroyed all creatures
on the earth; but Holy God, the Eternal King, the Lord of heaven,
stern of heart, preserved the ark when He unleashed the ocean
currents and their changing streams.
Grown And Flown
© Christina Georgina Rossetti
I loved my love from green of Spring
Until sere Autumn's fall;
But now that leaves are withering
How should one love at all?
One heart's too small
For hunger, cold, love, everything.
Gray
© William Rose Benet
Fold on fold the purple, crimson then
Gold? I shook my head and turned away.
What? I turned and glared in that barbaric den.
"Gray!"
