Sydney Wheeler Jephcott Spirit Poems
- 1. Home-woe
The wreckage of some name-forgotten barque,
Half-buried by the dolorous shore;
Whereto the living waters never more
Their urgent billows pour;
... - 2. White Paper
SNOWY-SMOOTH beneath the pen-
Richest field that iron ploughs,
Germinating thoughts of men,
Tho- no heaven its rain allows.
... - 3. The Dreamers
HAVE courage, O my comradry of dreamers!
All things, except mere Earth, are ours.
We pluck its passions for our flowers.
Dawn-dyed our great cloud-banners toss their streamers
...
