First Line: Lips half-willing in a doorway
Last Line: And the farmers make half-answers.
Subject(s): Villages
LIPS half-willing in a doorway.
Lips half-singing at a window.
Eyes half-dreaming in the walls.
Feet half-dancing in a kitchen.
Even the clocks half-yawn the hours
And the farmers make half-answers.
