Landscapes:
New Hampshire |
||
by
T.S. Eliot in 1933 |
||
I. New Hampshire | ||
CHILDREN'S voices in the orchard | ||
Between the blossom- and the fruit-time: | ||
Golden head, crimson head, | ||
Between the green tip and the root. | ||
Black wing, brown wing, hover over; | ||
Twenty years and the spring is over; | ||
To-day grieves, to-morrow grieves, | ||
Cover me over, light-in-leaves; | ||
Golden head, black wing, | ||
Cling, swing, | ||
Spring, sing, | ||
Swing up into the apple-tree. | ||
