Social and Personal
In An Old Street

David Morton, in the Bookman)
The twilight gathers here like brood
ing thought.
HAUNTING each Swallowed doorward
and its door,
with gone. forgotten beauty that was
wrought
az hands and hearts that come this
way no more.
Here an lnterser quiet stills the air
With old remembering OF what Is
not;
Oh silver slippers gone from every
stair,
And silver laughter long and long
forgot.
Deeper and deeper where this dusk is
drifjed
Gathers a sense Of waiting through
the night.
About old doors whose latch is never
lifted
And dusty windows vacant of a
light.
Deeper and deeper, till the gray turns
blue,
And one by one the patient stars peer
through

their oars in valiant efforts they could
not cut down the lead of their rivals.
Both crews. however. finished, with
