Imporv Week 6

From "Those Winter Sundays" by Robert Hayden

If only I knew of those gestures
that woke me up to warmth.
How do I know, how do I know
the ways to repay the winter Sundays
that led me to indifferent offices.
I would have thanked him now that
I know regretful cold sheets he'll
never warm again and wake to my
mutterings of thanks.
