Songs in a Hospital - The Broken Field

by Sara Teasdale

My soul is a dark ploughed field   In the cold rain; My soul is a broken field   Ploughed by pain. Where windy grass and flowers   Were growing, The field lies broken now   For another sowing. Great Sower, when you tread   My field again, Scatter the furrows there   With better grain.
