The DreamersAnd Other Poems
A prison seemed to be.

 

 

Her shining plates against the walls,

Her shining plates against the walls,

 

Her sunlit, sanded floor,

Her sunlit, sanded floor,

 

The brass-bound wedding chest that held

The brass-bound wedding chest that held

 

Her linen's snowy store,

Her linen's snowy store,

 

The very wheel whose humming died,—

The very wheel whose humming died,—

 

Seemed only chains she bore.

Seemed only chains she bore.
