No sun--no moon! <br />No morn--no noon! <br />No dawn--no dusk--no proper time of day-- <br />No sky--no earthly view-- <br />No distance looking blue-- <br />No road--no street--no "t'other side this way"-- <br />No end to any Row-- <br />No indications where the Crescents go-- <br />No top to any steeple-- <br />No recognitions of familiar people-- <br />No courtesies for showing 'em-- <br />No knowing 'em! <br />No traveling at all--no locomotion-- <br />No inkling of the way--no notion-- <br />"No go" by land or ocean-- <br />No mail--no post-- <br />No news from any foreign coast-- <br />No Park, no Ring, no afternoon gentility-- <br />No company--no nobility-- <br />No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease, <br />No comfortable feel in any member-- <br />No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees, <br />No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds-- <br />November!<br /><br />Thomas Hood<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/no/
