Explore "Dusk in the Woods" by Madison Cawein on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
/ Three miles of trees it is: and I / Came through the woods that waited, dumb, / For the cool summer dusk to come; / And lingered there to watch the sky / Up which the gradual splendor clomb.
/ A tree-toad quavered in a tree; / And then a sudden whippoorwill / Called overhead, so wildly shrill / The sleeping wood, it seemed to me, / Cried out and then again was still.
