“Not like Homer would I write,
Not like Dante if I might,
Not like Shakespeare at his best,
Not like Goethe or the rest,
Like myself, however small,
Like myself, or not at all.”

In just a few lines, William Allingham reminds us how the simplest spring scene, ducks, sky, clouds, can linger for a lifetime. A tiny lyric about memory, tenderness, and how ordinary beauty becomes sacred with time.

“Down dashed the cup with a sudden shock,
The wine like blood ran over the rock.”
From “#SaintMargaret’s Eve” by #WilliamAllingham. Even a saint’s day offers no protection from certain magical damsels! #FolkyFriday “#Melusine's Secret Discovered,” 15th c. https://t.co/E9GR9tIGuk
Down along the rocky shore
Some make their home.
They live on crispy #pancakes
Of yellow tide-foam;
Some in the reeds
Of the black mountain-lake,
With frogs for their watchdogs,
All night awake.

The Fairy Queen's Messenger (1870) Artist Richard Doyle
I heard the dogs howl in the moonlight night;
I went to the window to see the sight. (William Allingham)
