Excerpt from Where Life Is Real

The streets were dark and deserted, save now and then a belated pedestrian hurrying homeward. At a window in a two-story house that stood a little back from the street, a house with the quaint architecture of the long-ago stamped upon it, a woman sat. The house had grown Old with the years, the woman with the hours. Peering through the heavy lace curtains, sole relics of a past prosperity, she gazed out upon the small lawn that lay white and motionless in the arms of the last snow fall, and down the street, small artery of a city's throbbing, pulsing life, that now seemed hushed and quiet. Footsteps, some lagging as if their owners were in realms Of fancy far.
