Сегодня на уроке английской литературы я открыла для себя творчество Edna St. Vincent Millay благодаря Dr. Nitoo Das. Эта работа(poem) мне больше всего понравилась...

> **My heart is what it was before,****A house where people come and go;****But it is winter with your love,****The sashes are beset with snow.****I light the lamp and lay the cloth,****I blow the coals to blaze again;****But it is winter with your love,****The frost is thick upon the pane..****I know a winter when it comes:****The leaves are listless on the boughs;****I watched your love a little while,****And brought my plants into the house.****I water them and turn them south,****I snap the dead brown from the stem;****But it is winter with your love,****I only tend and water them.****There was a time I stood and watched****The small, ill-natured sparrows' fray;****I loved the beggar that I fed,****I cared for what he had to say,****I stood and watched him out of sight:****Today I reach around the door****And set a bowl upon the step;****My heart is what it was before,****But it is winter with your love;****I scatter crumbs upon the sill,****And close the window, —and the birds****May take or leave them, as they will. ** **Edna St. Vincent Millay **
