1. presentiment

  • Presentiment

    With saintly grace and reverent tread
        She walked among the graves with me;
        Her every footfall seemed to be
    A benediction on the dead.

    The guardian spirit of the place
        She seemed, and I some ghost forlorn,
        Surprised by the untimely morn
    She made with her resplendent face.

    Moved by some waywardness of will,...

    Ambrose Bierce

  • Presentiment is not long shadow

    Presentiment is that long shadow on the lawn

    Indicative that suns go down ;

    The notice to the startled grass

    That darkness is about to pass.

  • Presentiment — is that long Shadow — on the Lawn —

    Presentiment — is that long Shadow — on the Lawn —

    Indicative that Suns go down —


    The Notice to the startled Grass

    That Darkness — is about to pass —
