Poem by George Rostrevor Hamilton

Tugs

At noon three English dowagers ride
Stiff of neck and dignified,
Margaret, Maud and Mary Blake,
With servile barges in their wake:
But silhouetted at midnight
Darkly, by green and crimson light,
Three Nubian queens pass down the Thames
Stately with flashing gems.

1. The Idol
2. Walls
3. To Fighter Airmen
4. A Cross in Flanders
5. Fog
