Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough,
And stands about the woodland ride
Wearing white for Eastertide.

A self-portrait by Oliver Messell.
"He would not stay for me; and who can wonder?
He would not stay for me to stand and gaze,
I shook his hand and tore my heart in sunder
And went with half my life about my ways."
A E Housman, untitled, post 1918
[Yep, know that feeling...]

"The bells they sound on Bredon,
And still the steeples hum.
'Come all to church, good people,'—
Oh, noisy bells, be dumb;
I hear you, I will come." A.E.Housman （1896)

Rereading Voyager for the umpteenth time and realise what a beautiful foreshadowing "The colour of his hair" is. If I had been better versed in verses I'd seen it sooner.

#lawsky #housman already wedged a quotation from Housman into an email with some colleagues, so yeah, you could say I'm feeling pretty good about myself this morning.
"Three minutes' thought would suffice to find this out; but thought is irksome and three minutes is a long time"

A printout of A. E. Housman's poem "Loveliest of trees, the cherry now" attached with green ribbons to the fence in Straus Park under a flowering cherry tree. The poem reads: Loveliest of trees, the cherry now Is hung with bloom along the bough, And stands about the woodland ride Wearing white for Eastertide. Now, of my threescore years and ten, Twenty will not come again, And take from seventy springs a score, It only leaves me fifty more. And since to look at things in bloom Fifty springs are little room, About the woodlands I will go To see the cherry hung with snow.
It's that time of year. #Housman

Now hollow fires burn out to black,
And lights are fluttering low:
Square your shoulders, lift your pack
And leave your friends and go.
O never fear, lads, naught’s to dread,
Look not left nor right:
In all the endless road you tread
There’s nothing but the night.
– A.E. #Housman || #Uzumaki.

Thoughts of being at @The_Talbot for the Green Hop Festival in 2 weeks prompted a quick #Housman parody.
