PoemSunshine Has Filled The Room
Author / PoetAnna Akhmatova
TagsBirthday, Dreams, Snow, Sunshine

Sunshine has filled the room
with clear golden specks of dust.
I woke up and remembered,
dear, it was your birthday.

But far beyond my windows
snow has covered the ground,
And made me forget, so now to atone,
I sleep without dreams.
