John McCrae - The Night ComethJohn McCrae - The Night Cometh
Work rating: Low


Cometh the night.  The wind falls low, The trees swing slowly to and fro: Around the church the headstones grey Cluster, like children strayed away But found again, and folded so. No chiding look doth she bestow: If she is glad, they cannot know; If ill or well they spend their day,             Cometh the night. Singing or sad, intent they go; They do not see the shadows grow; "There yet is time," they lightly say, "Before our work aside we lay"; Their task is but half-done, and lo!             Cometh the night.
