The Dark
by Elizabeth Madox Roberts
image
There are six little houses up on the hill.
And when it is night,
There are six little windows with light.
The katydids sing and some frogs are about,
5 And after a while one light goes out.
And then there are five lights still.
The little frogs chirp and I hear a dog bark
Somewhere away in the dark—
Off in the dark away somewhere
10 And only four houses are left up there.
And then there are three, and two, and one,
And the one little house with the light goes on
And on, and the dew gets cool,
And just for a moment there comes an owl . . .
15 Somebody sings three words, just three,
And five cool shivers go over the tree,
And a shiver goes over me.
A night fly comes with powdery wings
That beat on my face—it’s a moth that brings
20 A feel of dust, and then a bright
Quick moment comes to the one little light.
But it flickers out and then it is still,
And nothing is left on the hill.
PLEASE BE FAST
