The Horseman by Walter De La Mare

Charm's birthday party

We weren't overly impressed with any of Walter's poems.  Most were alright to read, but none presented itself as a great candidate for memorization.  Claire picked this one because of the subject matter.

The Horseman

I heard a horseman
Ride over the hill;
The moon shone clear,
The night was still;
His helm was silver,
And pale was he;
And the horse he rode
Was of ivory.
