Thomas Hardy - Here by the baring bough Raking up...

Here by the baring bough
Raking up leaves,
Often I ponder how
Springtime deceives,-
I, an old woman now,
Raking up leaves. (Thomas Hardy)

Here by the baring bough Raking up leaves, Often I ponder how Springtime deceives,- I, an old woman now, Raking up leaves.
