Here you will find the Poem I went down to post a letter of poet Lesbia Harford

I went down to post a letter

I went down to post a letter 
Through the garden, through the garden. 
All the lovely stars were shining 
As I went. 
They were free as I, unhappy 
Only he to whom the letter 
Must be sent. 
Even stars forget the prisons, 
Stars and clouds and moonlit waters, 
I believe the wind would shun them 
If it could. 
He at least rebels, remembers 
Dawn breaks eastward, where the prisons 
Erstwhile stood.
