To long-ago rooms,
Where memories lie.

The Temple

© Edgar Lee Masters

Beyond the gates of Hercules
The seven builders took the stone,
Spurned everywhere in days of ease,
Long lying loose and overthrown,
Now carried over bitter seas
Where crystally Arcturus shone!

Autumn Wealth

© Kristijonas Donelaitis

Of course, there is no lack of faithful Christians ,too.
Most of Lithuanians are men of good character;
They love their families, obey the will of God.
Each day live saintly lives, steer clear of all misdeeds,
And rule their modest homes with kind parental care.

Love Recalled in Sleep

There was a time when in your face
There dwelt such power, and in your smile
I know not what of magic grace;
They held me captive for a while.

In The White Giant's Thigh

© Dylan Thomas

Through throats where many rivers meet, the curlews cry,
Under the conceiving moon, on the high chalk hill,
And there this night I walk in the white giant's thigh
Where barren as boulders women lie longing still

Best

© Helen Hunt Jackson

Mother, I see you with your nursery light,
Leading your babies, all in white,
To their sweet rest;
Christ, the Good Shepherd, carries mine tonight,
And that is best.

A Woman’s Sonnets: IX

Calm in thy presence with no dream of ill,
When, having put all earthliness away,
I could be near thee, touching thee, and still

The Girl's Lamentation

With grief and mourning I sit to spin;
 My Love passed by, and he didn't come in;
 He passes by me, both day and night,
 And carries off my poor heart's delight.

By A Norfolk Broad

© Ada Cambridge

One hour ago the crimson sun, that seemed so long a-drowning, sank.
The summer day is all but done. Our boat is moored beneath the bank.
I bask in peace, content, replete-my faithful comrade at my feet.

The Indian Hunter

© Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

When the summer harvest was gathered in,
And the sheaf of the gleaner grew white and thin,
And the ploughshare was in its furrow left,
Where the stubble land had been lately cleft,
An Indian hunter, with unstrung bow,
Looked down where the valley lay stretched below.

The Themes

© Millosh Gjergj Nikolla

On the pallid faces of fallen women
Loitering in doorways to sell themselves,
On their faces a tragic poem is carved
In tears and grief that rise to the heavens,

For Charles Dickens

© Mary Hannay Foott

He brings no pageants of the past
 To wile our hearts away;
But wins our love for those who cast
 Their lot with ours to-day.
