Poems by Edith Nesbit
The Return
... Through the white of the stones and the gray of the grass, ...
The Refusal
... The spell would break, the palace fade, ...
And The Rains Descended And The Floods Came
... Laugh, safe and sure, at threatening wave and wind ...
In The Shallows
... Where all the world's lost treasure lies ...
Wedding Day
... Back the world slips, love! ...
Birthday Talk For A Child
... Because she learned and told you this ...
New Year Song
... 'Surely this brings our flower at last!' ...
The Skylark
... Rhymed with the bean-flower scent in June ...
Magic
... Dim groves and glimmering fountains there ...
Spring In War-Time
... Just like last years violets too, ...
Maidenhood
... Who, trembling, learns that thorns will wound some day, ...
Christmas Roses
... Friendship, remembrance of our past, and peace! ...
The Egoists
... Each, from far shores by wild winds brought, ...
May Day
... "For I have heard of maidens who laughed and went a-maying, ...
Haunted
... They come through night of ease and pleasant day ...
