Sophie M. (almon) Hensley Poems
- Rondeau. - It Might Have Been

To what has been; the summer's guileless play
Not all a jest, comes back to me to-day
In added sweetness, and provokes a tear. ... - Loneliness

As any hill-girt lake; the long brown beach
Lies bare and wet. As far as eye can reach
There is no motion. Even on the hill ... - To-morrow

I watch the soft-shod dusk creep wistfully
Through the slow-moving curtains, pausing by
And shrouding with its spirit-fingers free ... - Death
If days should pass without a written word
To tell me of thy welfare, and if days
Should lengthen out to weeks, until the maze
Of questioning fears confused me, and I heard. ... - Soothing
I aimless wandered thro' the woods, and flung
My idle limbs upon a soft brown bank,
Where, thickly strewn, the worn-out russet leaves
Rustled a faint remonstrance at my tread. ...
