Kathleen Jessie Raine Love Poems
- 1. Confessions
Wanting to know all
I overlooked each particle
Containing the whole
Unknowable.
... - 2. A Spell For Creation
Within the flower there lies a seed,
Within the seed there springs a tree,
Within the tree there spreads a wood.
... - 3. Heroes
This war's dead heroes, who has seen them?
They rise in smoke above the burning city,
Faint clouds, dissolving into sky รข??
... - 4. Vegetation
O never harm the dreaming world,
the world of green, the world of leaves,
but let its million palms unfold
the adoration of the trees.
... - 5. Worry About Money
Wearing worry about money like a hair shirt
I lie down in my bed and wrestle with my angel.
My bank-manager could not sanction my continuance for another day
... - 6. The End Of Love
Now he is dead
How should I know
My true love's arms
From wind and snow?
... - 7. Love Poem

... - 8. Far-darting Apollo
I saw the sun step like a gentleman
Dressed in black and proud as sin.
I saw the sun walk across London
Like a young M. P., risen to the occasion.
