With drowsy incense; let a distant stream

At times greet you with a simple rose

Drowned sunbeams and the perfume April blows;

Of petals from some magic rose;
And all my grief flows from the rift
Of unremembered skies and snows.

The Scholars

"Oh, show me how a rose can shut and be a bud again!"

And entered them at the landward schools as though no war had been.

Your feet must struggle; in such bold ascent

In me, past, present, future meet
To hold long chiding conference.
My lusts usurp the present tense
And strangle Reason in his seat.

Siegfried Sassoon

Siegfried Sassoon
Sandpiper

The roaring alongside he takes for granted,
and that every so often the world is bound to shake.
He runs, he runs to the south, finical, awkward,
in a state of controlled panic, a student of Blake.

That frightened thee so oft, is fled or dead:

Looked on the world, but, hearing how it lied,
Returned to her seclusion horrified.

Why Do Birds Sing?

Let poets piece prismatic words,
Give me the jewelled joy of birds!

Venus And Adonis

Even as the sun with purple-coloured face
Had ta'en his last leave of the weeping morn,
Rose-cheeked Adonis hied him to the chase;
Hunting he loved, but love he laughed to scorn.

But which will bloom most constantly?

William Shenstone
In Springtime

My garden blazes brightly with the rose-bush and the peach,
And the koil sings above it, in the siris by the well,
From the creeper-covered trellis comes the squirrel's chattering speech,
And the blue jay screams and flutters where the cheery sat-bhai dwell.

Your deepest sorrow is your prettiest attire.
