There is only this sound of falling, quiet and remote,
Like the memory of scales descending the white keys
Of a childhood piano-outside the window, palms!
And the heavy head of the cereus, inclining, 
Soon to let down its white or yellow-white.

Now, only these poor snow-flowers in a heap,
Like the memory of a white dress cast down . . .
So much has fallen.
                                   And I, who have listened for a step
All afternoon, hear it now, but already falling away,
Already in memory. And the terrible scales descending
On the silent piano; the snow; and the absent flowers
 abounding.]]> 2017-01-09 23:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/carairns/74yu35ej8kzs/wish/146141739
