PHANTOMS by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: ARE YE THE GHOSTS OF FALLEN LEAVES
Last Line: AGAIN IN GREEN?
Subject(s): GHOSTS; SUPERNATURAL;
ARE ye the ghosts of fallen leaves,
O flakes of snow,
For which, through naked trees, the winds
A-mourning go?

Or are ye angels, bearing home
The host unseen
Of truant spirits, to be clad
Again in green?
