RESIDUUM, by LEONORA CLAWSON STRYKER First Line: Had the year an april Last Line: Only dead leaves! | |||

My fingers caught her skirt -- Plucked at her sleeves: And yet my grasp retained Only dead leaves! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MESSAGE OF AN ANCIENT POET by LEONORA CLAWSON STRYKER CHAMBER MUSIC: 2 by JAMES JOYCE WALT WHITMAN by HARRISON SMITH MORRIS CABOOSE THOUGHTS by CARL SANDBURG SEVEN SAD SONNETS: 4.
