ON his morning rounds the Master
Goes to learn how all things fare;
Searches pasture after pasture,
Sheep and cattle eyes with care;
Imitation of The Olden Poets

Time is a taper waning fast!
Use it, man, well whilst it doth last:
Lest burning downwards it consume away,
Before thou hast commenced the labour of the day.
Impartiality
© James Russell Lowell
I cannot say a scene is fair
Because it is beloved of thee
But I shall love to linger there,
For sake of thy dear memory;
I would not be so coldly just
As to love only what I must.

Where now but poison ivy grows.

Dark-robed descending to the sea,
So slow, so silent of all speech,
And visible to me
Only by that strange drift-light, dim, forlorn,
Of the sun's wreck and clashing surges born.
I bended unto me a Bough
© Brown Thomas Edward
I bended unto me a bough of May,That I might see and smell:It bore it in a sort of way,It bore it very well
If Thou Could'st Empty All Thyself Of Self
© Edward Thomas
If thou could'st empty all thyself of self,
Like to a shell dishabited,
Then might He find thee on the ocean shelf,
And say, "This is not dead,"
And fill thee with Himself instead.

He faced the spectres of the mind
And laid them: thus he came at length
If He dissolvethenthere is nothing

Or it be too late!
Saythat the pulse just lisps
The Chariots wait
In A Garden

THOUGHT is a garden wide and old
For airy creatures to explore,
Where grow the great fantastic flowers
With truth for honey at the core.
