MARCH, by CHARLES HENRY WEBB Poet's Biography First Line: The earth seems a desolate mother Last Line: Under her bare, brown breast. Alternate Author Name(s): Paul, John | ||||||||
THE earth seems a desolate mother, -- Betrayed like the princess of old, The ermine stripped from her shoulders, And her bosom all naked and cold. But a joy looks out from her sadness, For she feels with a glad unrest The throb of the unborn summer Under her bare, brown breast. | Other Poems of Interest...DICTUM SAPIENTI by CHARLES HENRY WEBB DUM VIVIMUS VIGILAMUS by CHARLES HENRY WEBB GIL, THE TOREADOR by CHARLES HENRY WEBB LITTLE MAMMA by CHARLES HENRY WEBB TO THE MEMORY OF INEZ MILHOLLAND by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON A FAREWELL TO FOLLY: CONTENT by ROBERT GREENE ODE FOR A SOCIAL MEETING, WITH SLIGHT ALTERATIONS BY A TEETOTALER by OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES UNDERWOODS: BOOK 1: 22.
