Twilight at Sea

The twilight hours, like birds, flew by,
As lightly and as free,
Ten thousand stars were in the sky,
Ten thousand on the sea;
For every wave, with dimpled face,
That leaped upon the air,
Had caught a star in its embrace,
And held it trembling there.

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

The Gallows
There was a weasel lived in the sun
with all his family
till a keeper shot him with his gun and hung him up on a tree
where he swings in the wind and rain
in the sun and in the snow
without pleasure, without pain
on the dead oak tree bough
There was a crow who was no sleeper
but a thief and a murderer till a very late hour
and this keeper made him one of the things that were
to hang and flap in rain and wind
in the sun and in the snow
There are no more sins to be sinned
on the dead oak tree bough
There was a magpie too
had a long tongue and a long tail
He could both talk and do
but what did that avail?
He too flaps in the wind and rain
alongside weasel and crow
without pleasure without pain
on the dead oak tree bough
And many other beasts and birds
skin bone and feather
have been taken from their feasts
and hung up there together
to swing and have endless leisure
in the sun and in the snow
without pain
without pleasure
on the dead oak tree bough
