BrHomestead: Voices of the Earth, by Archibald Lampman (1861 - 1899)
"We have not heard the music of the spheres,
The song of star to star, but there are sounds
More deep than human joy and human tears,
That Nature uses in her common rounds;
The fall of streams, the cry of winds that strain

SiegfriedMag: This is Archibald Lampman. Our early readers may recognize his name from our first issue of last December, where we featured Lampman’s poem “Snow.”
BeechwoodOttawa: As Archibald Lampman's poem - In Beechwood Cemetery says
Here the dead sleep--the quiet dead. No sound
Disturbs them ever, and no storm dismays.
Winter mid snow caresses the tired ground,
And the wind roars about the woodland ways.

MelanieJaxn: The dry dead leaves flit by with thin weird tunes,
Like failing murmurs of some conquered creed,
Graven in mystic markings with strange runes,
That none but stars and biting winds may read.

bywordsdotca: Congratulations to the recipients of the City of Ottawa Book Award and to David O'Meara, the winner of the 2022 City of Ottawa Book Award for English Fiction and Arc Poetry Magazine's Archibald Lampman Award.
rcwmsn: All things that be
Seem plunged into silence, distraught,
By some stern, some necessitous thought:
It wraps and enthralls
Marsh, meadow, and forest; and falls
Also on me.

Soaks in the grass and hath his will;
I count the marguerites one by one;
Even the buttercups are still.

BurlHorniachek: 6/ The Lampman of the title is Archibald Lampman, widely considered the best of the 19th century Canadian poets, though that isn’t saying much.
brigitdedanaan: "O Master, all my strength is gone;
Unto the very earth I bow;
I have no light to lead me on;
With aching heart and burning brow,
I lie as one that travaileth
In sorrow more than he can bear;
I sit in darkness as of death,
And scatter dust upon my hair."

StreetsofC: “City of storm in whose grey heart are hidden
What stormier woes, what lives that groan and beat,
Stern and thin-cheeked, against time's heavier sleet,
Rude fates, hard hearts, and prisoning poverty”

raj65025523: He setteth his lips to the brim,
With a long last look of his eye,
And lifts it and draineth it dry.'
From ‘The Sun Cup’ (1890) by nineteenth-century Canadian poet Archibald Lampman.
AliceSchultz67: Dreamy crowds are moving yonder
In a faint and phantom blue;
Through the dusk I lean, and wonder
If their winsome shapes are true;
But in veiling indecision
Come my questions back again--
Which is real? The fleeting vision?
Or the fleeting world of men?

CMFScholarships: Canadian poet Archibald Lampman wrote "The glittering roofs are still with frost; each worn Black chimney builds into the quiet sky / Its curling pile to crumble silently." Is that what you think of when you think of Canada?

BeechwoodOttawa: In Beechwood Cemetery by Archibald Lampman
With leaf and bloom and pipe of wind and bird,
And the old earth puts forth her tender grass,
By them unfelt, unheeded and unheard.
Our centuries to them are but as strokes
In the dim gamut of some far-off chime.
