Lesbia Harford (Лесбия Харфорд)


* * *


I went down to post a letter
Through the garden, through the garden.
All the lovely stars were shining
As I went.
They were free as I, unhappy
Only he to whom the letter
Must be sent.
Even stars forget the prisons,
Stars and clouds and moonlit waters,
I believe the wind would shun them
If it could.
He at least rebels, remembers
Dawn breaks eastward, where the prisons
Erstwhile stood.



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. All through the day at my machine
  5. Florence kneels down to say her prayers
