LOUIE
I am forgetting Louie the buoyant;
Why not raise her phantom, too,
Here in daylight
With the elect one's?
She will never thrust the foremost figure out of view!
Why not raise her phantom, too,
Here in daylight
With the elect one's?
She will never thrust the foremost figure out of view!
735
Mid this heat, in gauzy muslin
See I Louie's life-lit brow
Here in daylight
By the elect one's.—
Long two strangers they and far apart; such neighbours now!
See I Louie's life-lit brow
Here in daylight
By the elect one's.—
Long two strangers they and far apart; such neighbours now!
July 1913.
