ruth morris gray - how like a winter lyrics

Loading...

how like a winter hath my absence been
from thee, the pleasure of the fleeting year!
what freezings have i felt, what dark days seen!
what old december’s bareness everywhere!
and yet this time remov’d was summer’s time
the teeming autumn, big with rich increase
bearing the wanton burthen of the prime
like widow’d wombs after their lords’ decease:
yet this abundant issue seem’d to me
but hope of orphans and unfather’d fruit;
for summer and his pleasures wait on thee
and thou away, the very birds are mute;
or if they sing, ’tis with so dull a cheer
that leaves look pale, dreading the winter’s near
