Births
Deaths Hid in his grey young eyes.
And wonder for his voice.html">voice.
But to divine his lyre?
But he is lord of his.
PARTED
Farewell to one now silenced quite,
My friend of friends, whom I shall miss.
nor.html">nor.html">Nor he, nor sadness, nor delight.
Though I shall walk with him no more,
He must not watch my resting-place
From the sad.html">sad winds about my door?
I shall not hear his voice complain,
His tears must not disturb my heart.html">heart.html">heart,
The world from every thought of pain?
Although my life is left so dim,
Joy is not gone from summer.html">summer skies,
And all these things are part of him.
He is not banished, for the showers
How can the summer but be sweet?
And yet my feet are on the flowers.
REGRETS
As, when the seaward ebbing tide doth pour
The parting waves slip back to clasp the shore
From where thy true heart dwells,
With lessening farewells;
Waving of hands; dreams, when the day forgets;
The saddest of my verses; dim regrets;
So patiently besought,
Thy desolated thought;
And fill thy loneliness that lies apart
Shall I content thee, O thou.html">thou broken heart,
Seaweeds afloat, and fills
Among the inland hills?
SONG
My Fair, no beauty of thine will last
Thy smiles, that light thee fitfully,
Except the few thou givest to me.
Thy sweet words vanish day by day,
Thy laughter, done, must cease to be,
Except the few that sing to me.
Hide then within my heart, oh, hide
Be kinder to thyself and me.
Shall never reach the long sad sea.
SONNET--IN FEBRUARY
Rich meanings of the prophet-Spring adorn,
And folded winds; no blossom in the bowers.
