WINTER is here,
And the music gone,
But the bird in my breast
Goes singing on.
Often he sings
In a sweet half-hour
What is told in a year
By star and flower.
Wrinkled and grey
By the touch of time,
I am young if I lend
My heart to rhyme.
Stay, if you can,
Little bird of blue,
Till I get me to bed
With dark and dew.
