    To Mirissa

    I woke to the blood curdling of my 14 year old Jack Russell howling this morning .So I got out of bed and calmed her down . You see she hasn't been feeling well for some time , walking into walls and acting peculiar . I picked her up off the floor and put her in her bed and covered her with her...

    MY AFTER-DINNER CLOUD

    Some sombre evening, when I sit And feed in solitude at home, Perchance an ultra-bilious fit Paints all the world an orange chrome. When Fear and Care and grim Despair Flock round me in a ghostly crowd, One charm dispels them all in air,— I blow my after-dinner cloud. 'Tis melancholy to devour...

    A POET'S PIPE

    A poet's pipe am I, And my Abyssinian tint Is an unmistakable hint That he lays me not often by. When his soul is with grief o'erworn I smoke like the cottage where They are cooking the evening fare For the laborer's return. I enfold and cradle his soul In the vapors moving and blue That mount...

    THE SMOKER'S REVERIE

    I'm sitting at dusk 'neath the old beechen tree, With its leaves by the autumn made ripe; While they cling to the stems like old age unto life, I dream of the days when I'll rest from this strife, And in peace smoke my brierwood pipe. O my brierwood pipe!—of bright fancy the twin, What a medley...

    THE LAST PIPE

    When head is sick and brain doth swim, And heavy hangs each unstrung limb, 'Tis sweet through smoke-puffs, wreathing slow, To watch the firelight flash or glow. As each soft cloud floats up on high, Some worry takes its wings to fly; And Fancy dances with the flame, Who lay so labor-crammed and...

    MY LITTLE BROWN PIPE

    I have a little comforter, I carry in my pocket: It is not any woman's face Set in a golden locket; It is not any kind of purse; It is not book or letter, But yet at times I really think That it is something better. Oh, my pipe, my little brown pipe! How oft, at morning early, When vexed with...

    EDIFYING REFLECTIONS OF A TOBACCO-SMOKER

    Set to music by Johann Sebastian Bach. Author unknown. Translated by Edward Breck. As oft I fill my faithful pipe, To while away the moments glad, With fragrant leaves, so rich and ripe, My mind perceives an image sad, So that I can but clearly see How very like it is to me. My pipe is made of...
