HEDGE, by CAMELIN WHITE First Line: I have a hedge; to passers by Last Line: Around a bit of kansas lawn. Subject(s): Hedges | |||
I have a hedge; to passers by It's just a boundary, but to me It spells a meager recompense For storied lands I'll never see. Always in books I lived and rode With hunter, horn, lean hounds, and fox Through meadows bound with English hedge -- Past gardens framed in yew or box. Though England I may never see, Nor hear the lark's clear call at dawn, Yet I've a hedgerow neatly clipped Around a bit of Kansas Lawn. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...H IS FOR HEDGE by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES HEDGES by CLAUDE COLLEER ABBOTT SONNETS FROM THE PORTUGUESE: 22 by ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING KILLED IN ACTION by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES THE GOLDEN TARGE by WILLIAM DUNBAR AT CASTLE BOTEREL by THOMAS HARDY |
