First Line: The earth is bleak and bare
Last Line: Above the lake.
Subject(s): Cold; Winter
The earth is bleak and bare.
Sharp cold is everywhere.
The wind is wild.
The stars are shining clear.
The ground is brown and sere.
The moon's pale glow
Is shining through the night
A cool, clean, crystal light.
There is no snow.
The rivers roar and leap.
The trees are still asleep.
They dare not wake.
They stand there on the hill
Though winds call high and shrill
Above the lake.
