Plain simple folk, who come and go On humble levels of life below, Little dream of the gales that smite Mortals dwelling upon the height. NO SONGS IN WINTER The sky is gray as gray may be. There is no bird upon the bough, There is no leaf on vine or tree. In the Neponset marshes now Willow-stems, rosy in the wind, Shiver with hidden sense of snow. So too 't is win...ter in my mind.
