JANE, Jane, Tall as a crane, The morning light creaks down again; Comb your cockscomb-ragged hair, Jane, Jane, come down the stair.
Jane looks down at her organdy skirt As if it somehow were the thing disgraced, For being there, on the floor, in the dirt, And she catches it up about her waist, Smooths it out along one hip, And pulls it over the crumpled slip.
I THOUGHT I was not alone, walking here by the shore, But the one I thought was with me, as now I walk by the shore, As I lean and look through the glimmering light—that one has utterly disappeared, And those appear that perplex me.(Read full poem)

I felt as if I was being reacquainted with an old friend who was now sharing her deepest thoughts with me. I haven't seen Jane in over 30 years but I feel like I just spent an afternoon with her.

 Jane Shore   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Notes: Jane Shore, the wife of a goldsmith, seems to have been the last great love of Edward IV's life (though Edward IV was truly prodigal with his energies).
She is said to have been charming as well as beautiful, but this simply meant that she was feared as having too much influence over the king.
It is not likely that this or any other Jane Shore ballad went into tradition, but there seem to have been enough of them that they deserve an entry here.

Winner of the Juniper Prize for Poetry, this little volume was Jane Shore's first.
She's published three more since then (as of this writing), and still hasn't even achieved the fame of such unknowns outside the poetry world as Jorie Graham and Gjertrud Schackenberg, both recent winners of major (well, for poetry) prizes.
This points to something being wrong with the universe, as Shore's work can easily hold a candle to the upper echelons of that being written by the talented today.
