Lesbia Harford (Лесбия Харфорд)


* * *


I came to live in Sophia Street,
In a little house in Sophia Street
With an inch of floor
Between door and door
And a yard you'd measure in children's feet.
When I'd been ten days in Sophia Street
I remembered its name was Wisdom Street;
For I'd learned much more
Than in all the score
Of years I clamoured for books to eat.



Lesbia Harford's other poems:
  1. Closing Time: Public Library
  2. He had served eighty masters. They'd have said
  3. Do you remember still the little song
  4. Florence kneels down to say her prayers
  5. I found an orchid in the valley fair
