Poems by Edith Nesbit
The Crown Of Life
... Come change, come loss, come worlds of tears, ...
In Hospital
... Where life knows death, and where poor glory meets ...
Two Christmas Eves
... Through frost-blanched panes the moon's cold stare ...
The Husband Of To-Day
... But the love that lights life, and makes death's self stingless-- ...
Spring Song III
... 'Twixt the green and blue ...
Quieta Ne Movete II
... Should thrill beneath those smiles of hers, ...
The Confession
... Take good with bad--here's something done-- ...
Song Of Long Ago
... Long ago, my last sweet sweetheart, ...
Faith
... And to bind with her blessing the hearts that bleed ...
For Dolly -- Who Does Not Learn Her Lessons
... Ah! why must we clip those wings and dim those eyes with books ...
Mother Song
... The strength you will break my heart with one of these days ...
Child's Song In Spring
... But the plane tree's kind to the poor dull city-- ...
Until The Dawn
... While through men's chorused 'Right!' clear rings his 'Wrong!' ...
A Song Of Trafalgar
... They would teach us smoothness, who once were rough, ...
Discretion
... You, if you will, snare with those eyes ...
