HOME…BOUND
THE moon is a wavering rim where one fish
slips;
The water makes a quietness of sound;
Night is an anchoring of many ships
Home…bound。
There are strange tunnelers in the dark; and whirs
Of wings that die; and hairy spiders spin
The silence into nets; and tenanters
Move softly in。
I step on shadows riding through the grass;
And feel the night lean cool against my face;
And challenged by the sentinel of space;
I pass。
JOSEPH AUSLANDE
AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL
O BEAUTIFUL for spacious skies;
For amber waves of grain;
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet;
Those stern; impassioned stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat
Across the wilderness!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw;
Confirm thy soul in self…control;
Thy liberty in law!
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife
Who more than self their country loved;
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine;
Till all success be nobleness;
And every gain divine。
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
》From sea to shining sea!
KATHERINE LEE BATES
YELLOW CLOVER
MUST I; who walk alone;
come on it still;
This Puck of plants
The wise would do away with;
The sunshine slants
To play with;
Our wee; gold…dusty flower; the yellow clover;
Which once in Parting for a time
That then seemed long;
Ere time for you was over;
We sealed our own?
Do you remember yet;
O Soul beyond the stars;
Beyond the uttermost dim bars
Of space;
Dear Soul; who found earth sweet;
Remember by love's grace;
In dreamy hushes of the heavenly song;
How suddenly we halted in our climb;
Lingering; reluctant; up that farthest hill;
Stooped for the blossoms closest to our feet;
And gave them as a token
Each to Each;
In lieu of speech;
In lieu of words too grievous to be spoken;
Those little; gypsy; wondering blossoms wet
With a strange dew of tears?
So it began;
This vagabond; unvalued yellow clover;
To be our tenderest language。 All the years
It lent a new zest to the summer hours;
As each of us went scheming to surprise
The other with our homely; laureate flowers。
Sonnets and odes
Fringing our daily roads。
Can amaranth and asphodel
Bring merrier laughter to your eyes?
Oh; if the Blest; in their serene abodes;
Keep any wistful consciousness of earth;
Not grandeurs; but the childish ways of love;
Simplicities of mirth;
Must follow them above
With touches of vague homesickness that pass
Like shadows of swift birds across the grass。
Beneath some foreign arch of sky;
How many a time the rover
You or I;
For life oft sundered look from look;
And voice from voice; the transient dearth
Schooling my soul to brook
This distance that no messages may span;
Would chance
Upon our wilding by a lonely well;
Or drowsy watermill;
Or swaying to the chime of convent bell;
Or where the nightingales of old romance
With tragical contraltos fill
Dim solitudes of infinite desire;
And once I joyed to meet
Our peasant gadabout
A trespasser on trim; seigniorial seat;
Twinkling a saucy eye
As potentates paced by。
Our golden cord! our soft; pursuing flame
From friendship's altar fire!
How proudly we would pluck and tame
The dimpling clusters; mutinously gay!
How swiftly they were sent
Far; far away
On journeys wide;
By sea and continent;
Green miles and blue leagues over;
》From each of us to each;
That so our hearts might reach;
And touch within the yellow clover;
Love's letter to be glad about
Like sunshine when it came!
My sorrow asks no healing; it is love;
Let love then make me brave
To bear the keen hurts of
This careless summertide;
Ay; of our own poor flower;
Changed with our fatal hour;
For all its sunshine vanished when you died;
Only white clover blossoms on your grave。
KATHERINE LEE BATES
THE RETURNING
We long for her; we yearn for her
Yes; ardently we yearn
For her return。
Recalling those beloved days
(Days intimate with ways
Of friends so near to us
And life so dear to us);
We yearn unspeakably for her return。
And come she must。 。 。Yet while we trust
We soon may see the passing of this agony
Which makes intrusive years still seem
A fearsome dream;
We know that when she comes
She really comes not back again。
She'll come in other guise
And under fairer skies
And yet to bitter pain!
That day she went away
Our homes with laughing youth were filled。
Where then was happiness
Is now distress;
The laughter st
