These beThree silent things: The Falling snow. . . the hour Before the dawn. . . the mouth of one Just dead.
Adelaide Crapsey
(1878 - 1914)
These beThree silent things: The Falling snow. . . the hour Before the dawn. . . the mouth of one Just dead.
Listen . . . With faint dry sound, Like steps of passing ghosts, The leaves, frost-crisp'd, break free from the trees And fall.
