Thomas Edward Brown Poems
Pain
The Man that hath great griefs I pity not;
’Tis something to be great
In any wise, and hint the larger state,
Though but in shadow of a shade, God wot!... more »
My Garden
A garden is a lovesome thing, God wot!
Rose plot,
Fringed pool,
Ferned grot--... more »
Specula
When He appoints to meet thee, go thou forth—
It matters not

Bleak waste or sunny plot.... more »

SHE knelt upon her brother's grave,
My little girl of six years old--
He used to be so good and brave,
The sweetest lamb of all our fold;... more »

Then is it as if God caress'd
Twin babes upon His knees--... more »

Comments about Thomas Edward Brown
My Garden
A garden is a lovesome thing, God wot!
Rose plot,
Fringed pool,
Ferned grot--
The veriest school
Of peace; and yet the fool
Contends that God is not--
Not God! in gardens! when the eve is cool?
Nay, but I have a sign;
'Tis very sure God walks in mine.
I love My Garden and as I am a Brown and majored in poetry I read his poems on line. It is my birthday soon and I will request a copy. We are related to Capability Brown and I love gardening so it all fits together. Best wishes
