SHADOW LAND

Reading edition

There is a world where noon is night, Where from dark leaves the slanted light Turns, with cold o’erwhelming might, The heart to fear and dread. There the twigs and branches break, The sods with lifeless footfalls quake, And, gliding by the leaflets, rake The garments of the dead.
