Not these my hands
And yet I think there was
A woman like me once had hands
Like these.

Old winds that blew
When chaos was, what do
They tell the clattered trees that I
Should weep?

With faint dry sound,
Like steps of passing ghosts,
The leaves, frost-crisp'd, break from the trees
And fall.

Three silent things:
The falling snow... the hour
Before the dawn... the mouth of one
Just dead.
