A Child's Christmas In Wales
One Christmas was so much like another, in those years around the sea-town corner now and out of all sound except the distant speaking of the voices I sometimes hear a moment before sleep, that I can never remember whether it snowed for six days and six nights when I was twelve or whether it snowed for twelve days and twelve nights when I was six.

Among Those Killed In The Dawn Raid Was A Man Aged A Hundred
When the morning was waking over the war

A Refusal to Mourn the Death...

Ballad Of The Long-Legged Bait
The bows glided down, and the coast
Before I Knocked
Before I knocked and flesh let enter,
Clown in the Moon
My tears are like the quiet drift
Deaths And Entrances
On almost the incendiary eve
Do not go gentle into that good night
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Ears In The Turrets Hear
Ears in the turrets hear
Elegy
Too proud to die; broken and blind he died
Especially when the October wind
Especially when the October wind

Now as I was young and easy under the apple boughs
Foster The Light
Foster the light nor veil the manshaped moon,
From Love's First Fever To Her Plague
From love's first fever to her plague, from the soft second
Hold Hard the Ancient Minutes
Hold hard, these ancient minutes in the cuckoo's month,
Holy Spring
O
How Shall My Animal
How shall my animal
I Dreamed My Genesis
I dreamed my genesis in sweat of sleep, breaking
I Fellowed Sleep
I fellowed sleep who kissed me in the brain,
If I Were Tickled By the Rub of Love
If I were tickled by the rub of love,
I Have Longed To Move Away
I have longed to move away
I, In My Intricate Image
I
Incarnate Devil
Incarnate devil in a talking snake,
In My Craft or Sullen Art
In my craft or sullen art
In The Beginning
In the beginning was the three-pointed star,
I See the Boys of Summer

January 1939
Because the pleasure-bird whistles after the hot wires,
Lament
When I was a windy boy and a bit
Lie Still, Sleep Becalmed
Lie still, sleep becalmed, sufferer with the wound
Light breaks where no sun shines
Light breaks where no sun shines;
Love in the Asylum
A stranger has come
My Hero Bares His Nerves
My hero bares his nerves along my wrist
My World Is Pyramid
I
Not From This Anger
Not from this anger, anticlimax after
Now
Now
O Make Me A Mask
O make me a mask and a wall to shut from your spies
On A Wedding Anniversary
The sky is torn across
Once It Was the Colour of Saying
Once it was the colour of saying
On No Work of Words
On no work of words now for three lean months in the

Prologue
This day winding down now
Should Lanterns Shine
Should lanterns shine, the holy face,
Sometimes the Sky's Too Bright
Sometimes the sky's too bright,
The Conversation Of Prayer
The conversation of prayers about to be said
The Force that Through the Green Fuse Drives the Flower
The force that through the green fuse drives the flower
The Hand That Signed the Paper
The hand that signed the paper felled a city;
Then Was My Neophyte
Then was my neophyte,
There Was A Saviour

Where Once the Waters of Your Face
Where once the waters of your face
