The House On The Hill (1922) is a villanelle by American poet Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869-1935)
- They are all gone away,
- The House is shut and still,
- There is nothing more to say.
- Through broken walls and gray
- The winds blow bleak and shrill:
- They are all gone away.
- Nor is there one to-day
- To speak them good or ill:
- There is nothing more to say.
- Why is it then we stray
- Around that sunken sill?
- They are all gone away,
- And our poor fancy-play
- For them is wasted skill:
- There is nothing more to say.
- There is ruin and decay
- In the House on the Hill:
- They are all gone away,
- There is nothing more to say.
