Happy Ending: The Collected Lyrics of Louise Imogen Guiney

"Sudden, the thunder! Upon the roofed verandas how it rolled, Twice, thrice: a thud and flame of doom that told, New-fallen, nor far away, Some black destruction on the innocent day. And little Everard Deep in the hammock under, eyes alight, With healthful fear and wonder, The brave do ne'er unlearn, Clenched his soft hand, and breathing hard, Smiled there against his father, like a knight, Baptized on Cressy field or Bannockburn…" The novel "Happy Ending…" features the poems of Louise Imogen Guiney many drawn from his books and publications in magazines.
