The Mind

Curtains

by Hazel Hall 1886–1924

From Curtains (1921)

The Mind

I have curtained my window with filmy seeming,
Overhanging it with chintz of dreaming,
That I may watch through sun and rain
Beside the windowpane.

Faintly my curtains stir and flutter
Before the words that loud rains utter,
And through their fabric, cool and still,
The sun falls on the sill.
