  • "Above the Dock" by T.E. Hulme
    Apr 12 2026

    Above the quiet dock in mid night,
    Tangled in the tall mast's corded height,
    Hangs the moon. What seemed so far away
    Is but a child's balloon, forgotten after play.

  • "Red" (Excerpt) by Eugene Field
    Apr 5 2026

    ANY color, so long as it's red,
    Is the color that suits me best,
    Though I will allow there is much to be said
    For yellow and green and the rest;
    But the feeble tints which some affect
    In the things they make or buy
    Have never—I say it with all respect—
    Appealed to my critical eye.

  • "When You Are Old" by William Butler Yeats
    Mar 29 2026

    When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
    And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
    And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
    Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

    How many loved your moments of glad grace,
    And loved your beauty with love false or true,
    But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
    And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

    And bending down beside the glowing bars,
    Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
    And paced upon the mountains overhead
    And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
