FROST, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I left my window wide for love
Last Line: Before the dawn was dead.
Alternate Author Name(s): Father Tabb
Subject(s): Frost; Love


I left my window wide for love
To enter while I slept;
The moon, his homeward path above,
Her midnight vigil kept.

But suddenly, as o'er a glass.
A clouding vapor spread;
The heavens were cold; and love, alas!
Before the dawn was dead.
