_(page_8_crop).jpg)
Thomas Henry Kendall (18 April 1839 – 1 August 1882), was an Australian author and bush poet, who was particularly known for his poems and tales set in a natural environment. He appears never to have used his first name — his three volumes of verse were all published under the name of Henry Kendall.
Quotes
[edit]- The silver-voiced bell-birds, the darlings of day-time,
They sing in September their songs of the May-time.
- Welcome as waters unkissed by the summers
Are the voices of bell-birds to thirsty far-comers.
- Songs interwoven of lights and of laughters
Borrowed from bell-birds in far forest rafters.
