English Poems and Songs

THE SEA-J.Reeves{James Reeves}


The sea is a hungry dog.
Giant and grey.
He rolls on the beach all day.
With clashing teeth and shaggy jaws
Hour upon hour he gnaws
The rumbling,tumbling stones,
And"Bones,bones,bones,bones!"
The giant sea-dog moans,
Licking his greasy paws.


And when the night wind roars
And the moon rocks in the stormy cloud,
He bounds to his feet and snuffs and sniffs,
Shaking his wet side over the cliffs,
And howls and hollos long and loud.


But one quiet day in May or June,
When even the grass on the dune
Play no more their reedy tune,
With his head between his paws
He lies on the sandy shores,
So quiet,so quiet,he scarcely snores.



THE GARDEN OF LOVE-William Blake


I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen:
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.


And the gates of this Chapel were shut,
And "Thou shalt not" writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love,
That so many sweet flowers bore;


And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires.

SHE DWELT AMONG THE UNTRODDEN WAYS-William Wordsworth


She dwelt among the untrodden ways
Besides the springs of Dove,
A maid whom there were non to praise
And very few to love;


A violet by a mossy stone
Half hidden from eye!
-Fair as a star,when only one
is shining in the sky.


She lived unknown,and few could know
When Lucy ceased to be;
But she is in her grave,and,oh,
The difference to me!

PAST AND PRESENT-Thomas Hood


I remember,I remember
The house where I was born,
The little window where the sun
Came peeping in at morn;
He never came a wink too soon
Nor brought too long a day;
But now,I often wish the night
Had borne my breath away.


I remember,I remember
The roses,red and white,
The violets,and the lily-cups--
Those flowers made of light!
The lilacs where the robin built,
And where my brother set
The laburnum on his birthday,--
The tree is living yet!


I remember,I remember
Where I was used to swing,
And thought the air must rush as fresh
To swallows on the wing;
My spirits flew on feathers then
That is so heavy now,
And summer pools could hardly cool
The fever on my brow


I remember,I remember
The fir tree dark and high;
I used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky:
It was a childish ignorance,
But now 'tis little joy'
To know I am farther off from Heaven
Than when I was a boy.

WORDS


Smile, an everlasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you gone
Cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost it's glory
Lets start a brand new story
Now my love
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say...
It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away


Talk, in everlasting words
And dedicate them all, to me
And I will give you all my life
I'm here if you should call to me
You think that I don't even mean
a single word I say...


[Chorus, repeat]


Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da


This world has lost it's glory
Let's start a brand new story
Now, my love
You think that I don't even mean
a single word I say...

I MISS MY LOVE



I miss your smile
I miss your touch
I just miss you so much
I miss your kiss
I miss your hand in mine
I miss you all the time
I miss the way i felt in your arms
I felt like nothing to do me harm
then you left and i couldn’t cry
I felt like i wanted to die
I loved you
I held every thing above you
I got mad and cussed you out
and then i lost some thing that meant even more to me
I had lost a love and a friends
I see you every day
and still i love you in every day
I can not forget you cause
your always their in those halls were we went trough it all
I've lost the tears to cry
and no everyday i die a little inside.
