Nature
From Above
From Plays and Lyrics (1906)
Nature
What do I care if the trees are bare
And the hills are dark
And the skies are gray.
What do I care for chill in the air,
For crows that cark
At the rough wind's way.
What do I care for the dead leaves there--
Or the sullen road
By the sullen wood.
There's heart in my heart
To bear my load!
So enough, the day is good!
