Accordion DaysA Poem by Sam StanhopePart of "The Winter Collection."Under these Winter days are cold Snow and frost gain bitter hold For in the morning ground, cracks, breaks Beneath my bare feet, more they can't take Oh! Wind, she doth blow and Low! the wind she blows Oh! Darkness she grows and Low! Darkness grows Under the bows of the trees Now dead and bare without leaf We strap our hearts to the bark Let them wither with grief Then at the dawn, they will mourn They will shiver and weep Oh! Cold winds blow and Oh! Darkness grows And in the harbour, the child of our Past days fades away Sat on the sea wall, he sings while Accordion plays And now I sing of those Accordion days Oh! Wind, she blows and Low! Wind doth blow and Oh! Darkness grows and Low! Darkness grows © 2011 Sam Stanhope |
