Enid Derham World Poems
- 1. The Mountain Road
Coming down the mountain road
Light of heart and all alone,
I caught from every rill that flowed
A rapture of its own.
... - 2. Farewell
I leave the world to-morrow,
What news for Fairyland?
I'm tired of dust and sorrow
And folk on every hand.
... - 3. The Wind-child
My folk's the wind-folk, it's there I belong,
I tread the earth below them, and the earth does me wrong,
Before my spirit knew itself, before this frame unfurled,
I was a little wandering breeze and blew about the world.
