Thomas Brown Poems

1.

We all knew her, and she all knew us;
And in our darkness she held us.
And in our triumph she praised us,
And she uttered a phrase;
...

The Tailor:

Is red your colour, Miss Smith?
Or do you prefer white?
...

Here lies a man,
Who has so much,
And relished so little.
And thus in a rich tomb buried,
...

Hail the seraphs, and let them bring the light;
As from the depth of our life we fight,
To live and be delivered from the night;
Into an Empire of bleakness, edged upon twilight.
...

5.

Have you ever seen a flower lie,
that seeks an end and means to fly?
I once saw one fall towards the sky,
drawn by the promises of clouds.

The Best Poem Of Thomas Brown

E305

We all knew her, and she all knew us;
And in our darkness she held us.
And in our triumph she praised us,
And she uttered a phrase;
‘Your not there yet'
As she wrote,
On the Blackboard.
of that lonely room.

And now the room lies dormant,
The books marked,
bearing the green font,
And the silence echoes,
Along the lonely room;
The stool that bore her,
And the desk where we gathered,
At the front, Of that lonely room.

At the back, the clock has stopped;
And the laughter gone.
Homework left unhanded,
bearing the green font;
And her familiar tone.
The tea and biscuits,
for her class,
left at home,
to be brought to the front;
of that lonely room.

We all knew her, and she all knew us;
And in our sadness she holds us,
And in our triumph she praises us,
And she utters a phrase,
‘Your not there yet'
As the writing still lingers,
on the blackboard,
of that lonely room.

Your poems, you know, they are really good.They all got what I call simplicity in which everything reflects, and they all make you feel that deep sadness, and at the same time some peculiar happiness, that sometimes goes hidden and unseen in everyday life. So...go on) Thanks for what you do)
