The House On The Hill (poem)




:They are all gone away,
:The House is shut and still,
:There is nothing more to say.

:Through broken walls and gray
:The winds blow bleak and shrill:
:They are all gone away.

:Nor is there one to-day
:To speak them good or ill:
:There is nothing more to say.

:Why is it then we stray
:Around that sunken sill?
:They are all gone away,

:And our poor fancy-play
:For them is wasted skill:
:There is nothing more to say.

:There is ruin and decay
:In the House on the Hill:
:They are all gone away,
:There is nothing more to say.
