Each one some little magic that belongs to you

From the dedication of Quaint Fragment by Lawrence Durrell to his mother Louisa Durrell
Pity these lame and halting parodies
Of greater, better poems —

I only plead
That I have lived them all these lonely few
And made them personal —⁠ quaint offering
Each one some little magic that belongs to you.
