lyrics

excerpt from "the black birds"
by henry van dyke

then, from the wood, across the silvery blue,
a dark bird flew,
silent, with sable wings.
close in his wake another came, --
fragments of midnight floating through
the sunset flame, --
another and another, weaving rings
of blackness on the primrose sky, --
another, and another, look, a score,
a hundred, yes, a thousand rising heavily
from that accursed, dumb, and ancient wood, --
they boiled into the lucid air
like smoke from some deep caldron of despair!
and more, and more, and ever more,
the numberless, ill-omened brood,
flapping their ragged plumes,
possessed the landscape and the evening light
with menaces and glooms.
oh, dark, dark, dark they hovered o'er the place
where once i saw the little house so white
amid the flowers, covering every trace
of beauty from my troubled sight,
and suddenly it was night...
