War's Embers, and Other Verses

FROM OMIECOURT

Reading edition

O small dear things for which we fight— Red roofs, ricks crowned with early gold, Orchards that hedges thick enfold— O visit us in dreams to-night! Who watch the stars through broken walls And ragged roofs, that you may be Still kept our own and proudly free While Severn from the Welsh height falls.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
