From A College Window
D. H. Lawrence
The glimmer of the limes, sun-heavy, sleeping, Goes trembling past me up the College wall. Below, the lawn, in soft blue shade is keeping, The daisy-froth quiescent, softly in thrall. Beyond the leaves that overhang the street, Along the flagged, clean pavement summer-white, Passes the world with shadows at their feet Going left and right. Remote, although I hear the beggar’s cough, See the woman’s twinkling fingers tend him a coin, I sit absolved, assured I am better off Beyond a world I never want to join.
