The Lost Word'
Esther Morgan
She's lost a word
and searches for it everywherebehind the sofa, at the back
of dusty cupboards and drawers.
She picks through the rubbish sacks.
Under the carpet she finds lots of other
she'd forgotten she'd swept under there
but not the one she's looking for.
The trouble is it's small -only two letters
though no less valuable for that.
She stands racking her brain
for the last time she used it
but all that comes to mind are failed attempts
of someone else's tongue.

A BOUNDLESS MOMENT
Robert Frost
" He halted in the wind, and - what was that
far in the maples, pale, but not a ghost?
He stood there, bringing March against his thought,
And yet too ready to believe the most
"Oh that's the paradise-in bloom", I said;
And truly it was fair enough for flowers
had we but in us to assume in March
Such white luxuriance of May for ours.
We stood a moment so in a strange world,
Myself as one his own pretense deceives;
And then I said the truth (and we moved on).

Meeting at Night — Robert Browning
I
The grey sea and the long black land;
And the yellow half-moon large and low;
And the startled little waves that leap
In fiery ringlets from their sleep,
As I gain the cove with pushing prow,
And quench its speed i' the slushy sand.
II
Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach;
Three fields to cross till a farm appears;
A tap at the pane, die quick sharp scratch
And a blue spurt of a lighted match
And a voice less loud, thro' its joys and fears,
Than the two hearts beating each to each!
