First Line: It is holiday time in the woods
Last Line: Of winter's snow.
Subject(s): Love; Memory; Old Age
It is holiday time in the woods,
And all the trees are to have new dresses
To welcome the Spring:
But the sombre pine,
In his old black clothes,
Sighs for the kiss
And the clinging love
Of winter's snow.
