Poem

'If I Were to Own' (Abridged) by Edward Thomas

If I were to own this countryside

As far as a man in a day could ride,

And the Tyes were mine for giving or letting,--

Wingle Tye and Margaretting

Skreens, Gooshays, and Cockerells,

Shellow, Rochetts, Bandish, and Pickerells,

Fields where plough-horses steam and plovers

Fling and whimper, hedges that lovers

Love, and orchards, shrubberies, walls

Where the sun untroubled by north wind falls,

For a song, a blackbird's song, at dawn.

He should have no more, till on my lawn

Never a one was left, because I

Had shot them to put them into a pie,--

His Essex blackbirds, every one,

And I was left old and alone.
