How Soon the Lights Go Out

The eternal wind roared last night

Bringing thoughts of Wuthering Heights.

No Heathcliff threw open the window

Imploring Cathy to come in .

Yet I felt the storm grin.

 

How quickly the lights

Of pubs and clubs go out.

And the reveller’s shout

Is lost in wind and night.
