DEAF, by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: This day last year I heard the curlew calling Last Line: Down slack and syke. | ||||||||
This day last year I heard the curlew calling By Hallypike And the clear tinkle of hill-waters falling Down slack and syke. But now I cannot hear the shrapnel's screaming, The screech of shells: And if again I see the blue lough gleaming Among the fells Unheard of me will be the curlew's calling By Hallypike And the clear tinkle of hill-waters falling Down slack and syke. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BETWEEN THE LINES by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON BREAKFAST by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON FLANNAN ISLE by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON FOR G. by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON GERANIUMS by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON LAMENT by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON RETREAT by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON RUPERT BROOKE by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON THE GORSE by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON THE ICE by WILFRID WILSON GIBSON |
