Carl Sandburg Dreams Poems

Dreams in the dusk,
Only dreams closing the day
And with the day’s close going back
To the gray things, the dark things,
...

I REMEMBER here by the fire,
In the flickering reds and saffrons,
They came in a ramshackle tub,
Pilgrims in tall hats,
...

COUNT these reminiscences like money.
The Greeks had their picnics under another name.
The Romans wore glad rags and told their neighbors, 'What of it? '
