William Kerr Grass Poems
- 1. In Memoriam D. O. M
Chestnut candles are lit again
For the dead that died in spring:
Dead lovers walk the orchard ways,
And the dead cuckoos sing.
... - 2. Counting Sheep
Half-awake I walked
A dimly-seen sweet hawthorn lane
Until sleep came;
I lingered at a gate and talked
... - 3. Her New-year Posy
When I seek the world through
For images of you,
Though apple-blossom is glad
And the lily stately-sad,
...
