Author Lesbia Harford I'm not his wife. I am his paramour: His wayside love, picked up in journeying: Rose of the hedgerows; fragrant, till he fling Me down beside the ditch, a drooped thing Some country boy may stick into his hat. A paramour has no more use than that. Tags Short Poems Rate this poem Select ratingGive it 1/5Give it 2/5Give it 3/5Give it 4/5Give it 5/5 No votes yet Rate Log in or register to post comments
