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 A SHROPSHIRE LAD: 26 by ALFRED EDWARD HOUSMAN THE CUMBERLAND [MARCH 8, 1862] by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW |
