On the First Truly Cold Day

Sparrows shiver
in the ivy.
Street people shiver
on the grate.
Dried leaves shiver
on the beech-boughs.
Schoolchildren shiver
playing recess games.
The whole landscape shivers—
Universal vibrations
That deeper deep freezes
Will stiffen and still.
On the First Truly Cold Day
