THE WIDOW
THE road is left; the yard;And the old sycamore;Larkspurs tall in the grassJust at the door;
And the thick gusty wind that breaksThe clothes-props down;She has a bed to make; for her tall girlA buff-sprigged gown.
But oh, to have him back againFlashing and young;To sit in yonder chair,And with delicate tongue
To talk to her of love,And things that last—Go call him from his graveWhere he lies fast!
