Author Thomas Howell Corpse, clad with carefulness;Heart, heaped with heaviness;Purse, poor and penniless;Back, bare in bitterness;Lips, laid with loathsomeness;Oh, get my grave in readiness;Fain would I die to end this stress, 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
