Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
Song
By Haniel Long
 
From “On the Road”

POPPIES paramour the girls,
  Lilies put the boys to bed—
Death not other is than this
  After everything is said.
 
They are safe, and shall not fade,        5
  After everything is done,
Past the solace of the shade
  Or the rescue of the sun.
