Poems by Dora Sigerson Shorter
My Darling
... The streams leaped joy-mad down the mountains, ...
The Good Lord Gave
... Soon I shall stand upright, smiling, strong, and brave, ...
The Kine Of My Father
... The vultures shriek impatient, and the coyote dogs are howling, ...
An Old Proverb
... "It will be all the same in a thousand years ...
A Lost Flower
... Since I cannot now have the sweetest ...
The Dead Soldier
... Where the sword has opened the way the man will follow ...
The Enemies
... |But came the caresa grey and stinging throng ...
An Eclipse
... Dear face that shades the light ...
The Troubadour
... Yet he Sat frowning by the yule-log's flame, ...
Mother
... Sleep that may wake from slumber yet more deep, ...
All Souls Eve
... Reproached me through the gloom, ...
The Sea Hounds
... " "'Tis some soul that's nigh lost in the tempest ...
Remorse
... )" "What would you tell me, my child, my child, that once slept a babe on my breast ...
The Sacred Fire
... With splendid dreams they made it glow, threw in their hearts of gold ...
But For The Tears
... Crowned with knowledge of a soul our calm and fair horizon clears ...
