Analysis of De Votre Bonheur Il Ne Reste Que Vos Photos Sipsce…
Archibald MacLeish 1892 (Glencoe) – 1982 (Boston)
And the rain since
And I have not heard
Leaf at the pane all winter
Nor a bird's wing beating as that was
I have not seen
All year your leaning face again
Since I have never wakened but that smell
Of wet pine bark was in the room.
