Poems by Dora Sigerson Shorter
Ourselves Alone
... "And oh," I cried, "Kathleen, I once heard you weeping ...
Near The Forum Of Trajan
... Where the living sleep, still as the dead are, ...
Kitties Toys
... And Johnny beats the wee ones, the small ones, the weak ones, ...
The Wreath
... " Then Easter came with wreath of lilies pale, ...
The Fairy Changeling
... She sobs, with the strange child on her breast ...
Sweet Marie
... Like some proud queen you went thus treasure crowned, ...
The Wanderers
... Of how, as from life's fruit she plucked the best, ...
The Deer-Stone
... "Movrone, Movrone," the good saint cried, ...
The Path Of Life
... We are sisters three, she answered, Hope, Youth, Joy, from Heaven sent ...
A Fairy Prince
... Then weeds grew rank where flowers had been, ...
The Little Bells Of Sevilla
... They wave their fans coquettish, their black eyes gleam and glow, ...
The Queen
... She made the green earth brown again, and made the brown earth green ...
The Wreckage
... Love lit a beacon in thine eyes, ...
The Foe
... Oh, brave heads slain, grey locked and darkly brown, ...
The Two Prayers
... Take thou these eyes, these ears, this strength, this breath ...
