Book Description
Excerpt from Short Poems The birds of spring No longer sing, The rose is seen no more; The girl I love Is like the dove, Gone to a foreign shore. I sit alone When spring is gone, And feel so broken hearted I sigh and sigh, 'tis years gone by, When we as lovers parted. It is in vain, For ne'er again Will I see my sweetheart true. Ten years ago She saw the snow, And then closed her eyes of blue. The birds of spring No longer sing, The rose is seen no more; The girl I love Is like the dove, Gone to a foreign shore.

Book Description
Excerpt from English Songs, and Other Small Poems "Barry Cornwall, with the exception of Coleridge, is the most genuine poet of love, who has, for a long period, appeared among us. There is an intense and passionate beauty, a depth of affection, in his little dramatic poems, which appear even in the affectionate triflings of his gentle characters. He illustrates that holiest of human emotions, which, while it will twine itself with the frailest twig, or dally with the most evanescent shadow of creation, wasting its excess of kindliness on all around it, is yet able to 'look on tempests and be never shaken.' Love is gently omnipotent in his poems; accident and death itself are but passing clouds, which scarcely vex and which cannot harm it. The lover seems to breathe out his life in the arms of his mistress, as calmly as the infant sinks into its softest slumber. The fair blossoms of his genius, though light and trembling at the breeze, spring from a wide, and deep, and robust stock, which will sustain far taller branches without being exhausted."

Book Description
Excerpt from Short Stories and Poems It was one of those cool, damp evenings in the early Fall, that Aunt Barbara and I felt the need of a fire. We found ourselves seated in the library beside a cheer ful blaze; it seemed that we did not partake of its cheerfulness however, for from some cause we knew not why, both were bordering on a melancholy state. Could it be the season I wondered, and my thoughts naturally reverted to William Cullen Bryant's beautiful poem, The melancholy days are come, the saddest of the year. We had sat so long without speaking, that the very silence grew embarrassing. I glanced at my aunt to see if I could divine her thoughts. Ah me, they seemed so far away, that even my presence had no effect upon her. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Old Kentucky Rhymes: A Collection of Early Poems and Sketches Before my mother passed away she often requested me to publish the poems I wrote when a girl. Other relatives and friends in more recent years have urged me to publish them. With some reluc tance I am yielding to their wishes but with confidence that those who know what my daily life and work mean at this time, will readily see that my thoughts have risen to a higher hope and a clearer understanding than my earlier lispings indicated. I shall feel amply repaid for the risk in setting this little volume adrift, if but one person finds something in the poems that te news a hope or makes an otherwise long day seem short. A few of the poems contained in this book were written in recent years. For the most part, however, they ex press my earlier thoughts. If, there fore, some careful reader should feel inclined to criticise them, I am sure he will first consider the time in life when they were written.
