Excerpt from Elsie and Other Poems

The hall is hushed. Beneath his skilful fin gers The Violoncello trembles - makes a pause; The tune grows boisterous - softens - barely lingers.

Excerpt from Elsie and Other Poems

Elsie.

There she goes beneath the trees
In her wide-brimmed summer hat
And the butterflies and bees
Wonder what she's laughing at.

On her dress the sun and shade
Play at restless hide and seek,
And the blushes glow and fade
On her tempting little cheek.

Listen! Who was that she heard
Calling from across the lawn?
Off she flutters like a bird:
In an instant she is gone.
