Winter in my country!
"Winter in the Country"
by Claude McKay
Sweet life! how lovely to be here
And feel the soft sea-laden breeze
Strike my flushed face, the spruce's fair
Free limbs to see, the lesser trees'
.
Bare hands to touch, the sparrow's cheep
To heed, and watch his nimble flight
Above the short brown grass asleep.
Love glorious in his friendly might,
.
Music that every heart could bless,
And thoughts of life serene, divine,
Beyond my power to express,
Crowd round this lifted heart of mine!
.
But oh! to leave this paradise
For the city's dirty basement room,
Where, beauty hidden from the eyes,
A table, bed, bureau, and broom
.
In corner set, two crippled chairs
All covered up with dust and grim
With hideousness and scars of years,
And gaslight burning weird and dim,
.
Will welcome me . . . And yet, and yet
This very wind, the winter birds
The glory of the soft sunset,
Come there to me in words.
sniff..shoot yourself then shoot me twice! :) !
The keyboard is drenched in my tears ...sniff.. sniff....
I left my homeland and all its beauty for life in this city as an expatriate ....sniff....

you must choose 'Flanostu' display picture for you. Talk to him may be he's ready to exchange. You know the time is Give n Take. May be he is afraid of your name then let me know I'll take him in privacy.
