Charlotte Mary Mew Song Poems
- 1. Not For That City
Not for that city of the level sun,
Its golden streets and glittering gates ablazeâ??
The shadeless, sleepless city of white days,
White nights, or nights and days that are as oneâ??
... - 2. Song
Love love to-day, my dear
Love is not always here
Wise maids know how soon grows sere
The greenest leaf of Spring.
... - 3. Fame
Sometimes in the over-heated house, but not for long,
Smirking and speaking rather loud,
I see myself among the crowd,
Where no one fits the singer to his song,
...
