NEW ENGLAND, by WILBERT SNOW Poet's Biography First Line: Inside, gray smoke curls up Last Line: What is left then? Alternate Author Name(s): Snow, Charles Wilber Subject(s): New England | ||||||||
Inside, gray smoke curls up, Outside, white flakes troll down Against bare maple trees In an old New England town. Earth lags securely sealed To any tropic gust, Like a plain New England heart Indifferent to lust. Nestled in little hills A waning breed of men Birth-date their headstones -- What is left then? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...NEW ENGLAND, AUTUMN by NORMAN DUBIE NEW ENGLAND, SPRINGTIME by NORMAN DUBIE POPHAM OF THE NEW SONG: 5; FOR R.P.
