SONG WRITTEN TO OLD MUSIC: CROATIAN, by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD Poet's Biography First Line: Rose that wert red Last Line: Now that I am dead. Alternate Author Name(s): Radford, Ernest, Mrs. | |||
ROSE that wert red, Drop thy flower on my head, Rose that wert red. Leaves that were sweet, Spill thy dews on my feet, Leaves that were sweet. Bird whose tired song Broke and died the day long, Sing thy old wrong. Heart whose clear flame Failed before the night came, Hide thy sharp shame. Rose that wert red, Drop thy flower on my head, Now that I am dead. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A BALLAD OF VICTORY by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A BRIDE by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A CONCERT by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A DREAM OF 'DREAMS' by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A MODEL by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A MODERN POLYPHEME by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A NOVEMBER ROSE by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A NOVICE by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A PORTRAIT by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A PRAYER by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD |
