Jenny Joseph Short Poems

Famous Short Jenny Joseph Poems. Short poetry by famous poet Jenny Joseph. A collection of the all-time best Jenny Joseph short poems


by Jenny Joseph
 The sun has burst the sky
Because I love you
And the river its banks.

The sea laps the great rocks
Because I love you
And takes no heed of the moon dragging it away
And saying coldly 'Constancy is not for you'.
The blackbird fills the air
Because I love you
With spring and lawns and shadows falling on lawns.

The people walk in the street and laugh
I love you
And far down the river ships sound their hooters
Crazy with joy because I love you.
