A poem by Sara Teasdale

Dusk In War Time

________________________________________________
Title:     Dusk In War Time
Author: Sara Teasdale [More Titles by Teasdale]

A HALF-HOUR more and you will lean
To gather me close in the old sweet way--
But oh, to the woman over the sea
Who will come at the close of day?

A half-hour more and I will hear
The key in the latch and the strong quick tread--
But oh, the woman over the sea
Waiting at dusk for one who is dead!






[The end]
Sara Teasdale's poem: Dusk In War Time
