Before the ice is in the pools - Before the skaters go, Or any check at nightfall Is tarnished by the snow - Before the fields have finished, Before the Christmas tree, Wonder upon wonder Will arrive to me! What we touch the hems of On a summer's day - What is only walking Just a bridge away - That which sings so - speaks so - When there's no one here - Will the frock I wept in Answer me to wear? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PRIDE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: MRS.
