Explore "Dusk in War Time" by Sara Teasdale on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
A HALF-HOUR more and you will lean / To gather me close in the old sweet way -- / But oh, to the woman over the sea / Who will come at the close of day?
A half-hour more and I will hear / The key in the latch and the strong quick tread -- / But oh, the woman over the sea / Waiting at dusk for one who is dead!
