A poem by Sara Teasdale

A Winter Night

________________________________________________
Title:     A Winter Night
Author: Sara Teasdale [More Titles by Teasdale]

My window-pane is starred with frost,
The world is bitter cold to-night,
The moon is cruel and the wind
Is like a two-edged sword to smite.

God pity all the homeless ones,
The beggars pacing to and fro.
God pity all the poor to-night
Who walk the lamp-lit streets of snow.

My room is like a bit of June,
Warm and close-curtained fold on fold,
But somewhere, like a homeless child,
My heart is crying in the cold.


[The end]
Sara Teasdale's poem: Winter Night
