One of those blue official things;
And, sealing it, to mock our hope,
The moon, a silver wafer, clings.

Walk swaying o'er the trembling seas
As one sways in a swoon;

I must go down to the sea again,
to the lonely sea and the sky;
I left my shoes and socks there -
I wonder if they're dry?

With patience merit the reward of peace,
Peace ye deserve; and may the solid good,

The Norman Boy

High on a broad unfertile tract of forest-skirted Down,
Nor kept by Nature for herself, nor made by man his own,
From home and company remote and every playful joy,
Served, tending a few sheep and goats, a ragged Norman Boy.

A Good Soldier

He writes to us most every day, and how his letters thrill us!

He's only soldiering to-day to give the Flag protection.

Through which our brother's journey lay,

And the cloudy days of autumn and of winter cometh on

Far away from heart and eye and for ever far away

A man with gun in hand;

The road was not lonely, yet I’s alone.

Lead an example to the upcoming generation
Be the voice of the voiceless woman
instead of being the pain of the painless woman.

From pangs that rend my heart in twain;
One last long sigh to love and thee,
Then back to busy life again.

The Female Exile

The Lonely Fight

To fight for what you know is right with no one else along.

and frequently worried than not.

It's a journey . . . that I propose . . . I am not the guide . . . nor technical assistant . . . I will be your fellow passenger . . .

And deserts gloomed or glimmered on each hand.

In the long summer of your love so that she would forget
Not the raw seasons alone, and the homes left behind, but
Also her nature, the urge to fly, and the endless

Till the soft sands thrill beneath your coming feet.
