Sara Teasdale - Winter Dusk lyrics

I watch the great clear twilight   Veiling the ice-bowed trees; Their branches tinkle faintly   With crystal melodies. The larches bend their silver   Over the hush of snow; One star is lighted in the west,   Two in the zenith glow. For a moment I have forgotten   Wars and women who mourn— I think of the mother who bore me   And thank her that I was born.
