Carl Sandburg (1878–1967).  Smoke and Steel. 1922.
  
V. Mist Forms
39. Blue Ridge
  
BORN a million years ago you stay here a million years … watching the women come and live and be laid away … you and they thin-gray thin-dusk lovely.
So it goes: either the early morning lights are lovely or the early morning star.
I am glad I have seen racehorses, women, mountains.
