Elizabeth Atkinson Poems

Recently we met, by chance,
And I was reminded of the past. You told me you regretted
That time had gone so fast.
You wished that we had tied the knot
...

First I saw them through the trees
And knew that I should bend my knees
At such a sight, before unseen,
Of bells a'dancing near the stream,
...

Where have you gone to brother dear?
It seems so sad without you here. Mother, dad and sisters two
Act so strange. They're missing you. Soft I peep with shy delight
At baby brought for Christmas night
...
