The Beautiful Changes

© Lola Ridge

One wading a Fall meadow finds on all sides 
The Queen Anne’s Lace lying like lilies
On water; it glides
So from the walker, it turns
Dry grass to a lake, as the slightest shade of you 
Valleys my mind in fabulous blue Lucernes.

To Roumania

© Henry Lawson

Rifles of the Rear Guard,
Rattling through the rain,
Falling back and falling back
To make a stand again –
Rifles of the Rear Guard,
Shall you die in vain?

The Bloody Sire

© Robinson Jeffers

It is not bad.  Let them play.
Let the guns bark and the bombing-plane
Speak his prodigious blasphemies.
It is not bad, it is high time,
Stark violence is still the sire of all the world’s values.

Tithonus

 Lo! ever thus thou growest beautiful
In silence, then before thine answer given
Departest, and thy tears are on my cheek.

To One Of The Author's Children

THOU wak'st from happy sleep to play
 With bounding heart, my boy!
Before thee lies a long bright day
 Of summer and of joy.

Thought.

© Robert Crawford

How mystical is thought! We do but think,
Be it of heaven or hell, and we are there!
Such feet has phantasy, more fleet than light,
We flash ourselves away where'er we will,

The Death Of Conradin

© Felicia Dorothea Hemans

No cloud to dim the splendour of the day
Which breaks o'er Naples and her lovely bay,
And lights that brilliant sea and magic shore
With every tint that charmed the great of yore-
The imperial ones of earth, who proudly bade
Their marble domes e'en Ocean's realm invade.

The Journey

I went upon a journey
To countries far away,
From province unto province
To pass my holiday.

Threshold

© Ronald Stuart Thomas

I emerge from the mind’s
cave into the worse darkness
outside, where things pass and
the Lord is in none of them.

The House of Life: 71. The Choice, I

© Dante Gabriel Rossetti

Now kiss, and think that there are really those,
 My own high-bosom'd beauty, who increase
  Vain gold, vain lore, and yet might choose our way!
  Through many years they toil; then on a day
 They die not,—for their life was death,—but cease;
And round their narrow lips the mould falls close.
