The Night Wind: Charles Burchfield, 1918 (Museum of Modern Art, New York)
The river is full
The time is ripe
Give murderous thoughts rest
No leaves on the trees
A mild sun darkens
the frosty earth
Quietness reigns
No birds, no wind
The shortest day of the year
is favorable
The time is ripe
Give murderous thoughts rest
No leaves on the trees
A mild sun darkens
the frosty earth
Quietness reigns
No birds, no wind
The shortest day of the year
is favorable
