Harold Edward Monro Delight Poems
- 1. Week-end
I
The train! The twelve o'clock for paradise.
Hurry, or it will try to creep away.
... - 2. Children Of Love
The holy boy
Went from his mother out in the cool of the day
Over the sun-parched fields
And in among the olives shining green and shining grey.
... - 3. Goldfish
They are the angels of that watery world,
With so much knowledge that they just aspire
To move themselves on golden fins,
Or fill their paradise with fire
... - 4. Child Of Dawn
O gentle vision in the dawn:
My spirit over faint cool water glides.
Child of the day,
To thee;
... - 5. Gravity
I
Fit for perpetual worship is the power
That holds our bodies safely to the earth.
...
