Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs.
Subject(s): Central Park, New York City
Buildings above the leafless trees
Loom high as castles in a dream,
While one by one the lamps come out
To thread the twilight with a gleam.
There is no sign of leaf or bud,
A hush is over everything --
Silent as women wait for love,
The world is waiting for the spring.
