"con amore"
still movement of december nights,
their fervent mixture upon white earth
belying the eyes with an imaginary hope,
their hearts now like a shutter's darkness
stirring thoughts in gentle convections,
a rose shed her petals in that dreary cold
her beauty now refuse-d that lay upon that ground
Refuse
a great word to describe death in nature. Open prosaic description - very solemn, quiet. - allets
