The Visitor
written by William Henry Davies
From "Child Lovers", (1916) Link to further information




She brings that breath, and music too,
  That comes when April's days begin;
And sweetness Autumn never had
  In any bursting skin.

She's big with laughter at the breasts
  Like netted fish they leap:
Oh God, that I were far from here,
  Or lying fast asleep!
