Love just knocked the door.
Back out of all this now too much for us,
The land was ours before we were the land’s.
I found a dimpled spider, fat and white,
I have been one acquainted with the night.
The buzz saw snarled and rattled in the yard
Mary sat musing on the lamp-flame at the table
My long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree
When I see birches bend to left and right
Nature’s first green is gold,
aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
