| We heard no step in the hall |
|
|
| We children used to cross the orchard, the brown earth covered with little green apples |
|
|
| A Star rides the twilight now |
|
|
| All day the pavement has been black |
|
|
| The Horses keep tossing their heads and stamp the hollow flooring |
|
|
| Swiftly the dawn became day. I went into the street |
|
|
| Building Boom |
|
|
| Clock, The / On the bookcase ticks |
|
|
| The Sun was low over the blue morning water |
|
|
| It had long been dark, though still an hour before supper-time |
