WHITE FIELDS, by JAMES STEPHENS Poet's Biography First Line: In the winter time we go Last Line: Where it is the children go. Subject(s): Snow; Winter | ||||||||
(1) In the winter time we go Walking in the fields of snow; Where there is no grass at all; Where the top of every wall, Every fence, and every tree, Is as white as white can be. (2) Pointing out the way we came, -- Every one of them the same -- All across the fields there be Prints in silver filigree; And our motners always know, By the footprints in the snow, Where it is the children go. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOOKING EAST IN THE WINTER by JOHN HOLLANDER WINTER DISTANCES by FANNY HOWE WINTER FORECAST by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN AT WINTER'S EDGE by JUDY JORDAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 34 by JAMES JOYCE |
