In Memoriam Mae Noblitt
July 5, 2023Tis Time, I Think, By Wenlock Town
July 5, 2023With rue my heart is laden
With rue my heart is laden
For golden friends I had,
For many a rose-lipt maiden
And many a lightfoot lad.
By brooks too broad for leaping
The lightfoot boys are laid;
The rose-lipt girls are sleeping
In fields where roses fade.
A. E. Housman
A. E. Housman (1859-1936) was an English poet and classical scholar who lived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He is known for his melancholic and nostalgic poetry, which often explored themes of unrequited love and the passing of time. Some of his most famous works include "A Shropshire Lad", "Last Poems", and "More Poems".
