Nature
Homeless
From Complete Poetical Works, ed. E. H. Coleridge (1912)
Nature
'O! Christmas Day, Oh! happy day!
A foretaste from above,
To him who hath a happy home
And love returned from love!'
O! Christmas Day, O gloomy day,
The barb in Memory's dart,
To him who walks alone through Life,
The desolate in heart.
