SNOWFLAKES, by                    
First Line: Out of the gray-draped skies they come
Last Line: They swirl a pillow for its head.
Subject(s): Snow


Out of the gray-draped skies they come,
Softly and silently on tip-toe --
Descending slowly lest a sound awake
Some fairy dream.

They put the yawning dark to bed
And tuck around the feet of night
A quilt of white, and soundlessly
They swirl a pillow for its head.
