Charles Hamilton Sorley Breath Poems
- 1. Route March
All the hills and vales along
Earth is bursting into song,
And the singers are the chaps
Who are going to die perhaps.
... - 2. Such, Such Is Death
Such, such is Death: no triumph: no defeat:
Only an empty pail, a slate rubbed clean,
A merciful putting away of what has been.
... - 3. Two Sonnets
I
Saints have adored the lofty soul of you.
Poets have whitened at your high renown.
... - 4. All The Hills And Vales Along
All the hills and vales along
Earth is bursting into song,
And the singers are the chaps
Who are going to die perhaps.
