Poems by Edith Nesbit
Spring Song II
... Not they! Their feet flit fast down the smooth steep way, ...
Sea-Shells
... Through storms no ship could dare to brave ...
Waterloo Day
... Let them send us a sight of the scarlet, and the sound of the guns in our ears! ...
To A Child
... (Rosamund.) The fairies have been busy while you slept ...
The Heart Of Joy
... Life's little things, Time and Space, do their worst, love! ...
Chagrin D'Amour
... And know at last what crown of thorns ...
A Farewell
... We still are yours and mine, though, by Time's theft, ...
Absolution
... Light seemed all pangs His priest might have to bear-- ...
Pessimism
... When fields are bare, and woods are brown and sere, ...
Song VI
... But if you could crown with flowers ...
Despair
... Where clean winds blow, and where good women pray ...
The End
... The white May-blossoms fall like snow, ...
Flower Of Aloe
... For us, at least, the old world has something new: ...
Invocation II
... Come with the scent of the night in your hair, ...
Faute De Mieux
... And the shade lies cool where the calves are feeding, ...
