Sara Teasdale, comp. (18841933). The Answering Voice: One Hundred Love Lyrics by Women. 1917. | | | | From a Car-window | | By Ruth Guthrie Harding |
| | | PINES, and a blur of lithe young grasses; | |
| Gold in a pool, from the western glow; | |
| Spread of wings where the last thrush passes | |
| And thoughts of you as the sun dips low. | |
| |
| Quiet lane, and an irised meadow
| 5 |
| (How many summers have died since then?)
| |
| I wish you knew how the deepening shadow | |
| Lies on the blue and green again! | |
| |
| Dusk, and the curve of field and hollow | |
| Etched in gray when a star appears: | 10 |
| Sunset,
twilight,
and dark to follow,
| |
| And thoughts of you through a mist of tears. | | | | |
