Poem-Those Winter Sundays by Robert Hayden

On Sundays too my father got up early and put his clothes on in the blueblack cold, then with cracked hands that ached from weather in the weekday weather made banked fires blaze. No one ever thanked him.

I'd wake and hear the cold splintering, breaking. When the rooms were warm, he'd call, and slowly I would rise and dress, fearing the chronic angers of that house,

Speaking indifferently to him, who had driven out the cold and polished my good shoes as well. What did I know, what did I know  of love's austere and lonely offices?
