Words Spelt

    We are all aware that speech, like chemistry, has a structure. There is a limited set of elements—vowels and consonants—and these are combined to produce words which, in turn, compound into sentences.
    Roger Brown (b. 1925)

    ‘I’m sorry that I spelt the word:
    I hate to go above you,
    Because’Mthe brown eyes lower fell—
    ‘Because, you see, I love you!’

    Still memory to a grey-haired man
    That sweet child-face is showing.
    Dear girl! the grasses on her grave
    Have forty years been growing.
