AN INTERVIEW by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: I SAT WITH CHILL DECEMBER
Last Line: "I'VE LIVED BUT THIRTY DAYS."

I sat with chill December
Beside the evening fire.
"And what do you remember,"
I ventured to inquire,
"Of seasons long forsaken?"
He answered in amaze,
"My age you have mistaken;
I've lived but thirty days."
