English Poetry. Henry Thoreau. What’s the Railroad to Me?. Генри Торо.

Henry Thoreau (Генри Торо)

* * *

What's the railroad to me?
I never go to see
Where it ends.
It fills a few hollows,
And makes banks for the swallows,
It sets the sand a-blowing,
And the blackberries a-growing.

1. Let Such Pure Hate Still Underprop
