SONG: 25, by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD Poet's Biography First Line: Below the rocks where the samphire blows Last Line: By the town or sea. Alternate Author Name(s): Radford, Ernest, Mrs. | |||
BELOW the rocks where the samphire blows, The pebbled beach in an inlet shows A quiet cave, where a green fern grows By the summer sea. 'Twould cheer and brighten my home alway, But fades if far from the fresh sea spray, It could not live for a single day In the town with me. Below the hill where the heather lies, A maiden sings, and her smiling eyes Say love's a blossom that never dies By the town or sea. | 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 |
