WHITE SNOW by GUILLAUME APOLLINAIRE

Poem Explanation

First Line: ANGELS ANGELS IN THE SKY / ONE'S DRESSED AS AN OFFICER
Last Line: DARLING GIRL IN MY ARMS' EMBRACE
Subject(s): SNOW;
Angels angels in the sky
One's dressed as an officer
One as a cook
And the others are singing

Smart officer color of the sky
Long after Christmas soft spring will bring
A shining sun to medal you
A shining sun

And now the cook is plucking geese
Ah! fall of snow
Falling and no
Darling girl in my arms' embrace
