Classic and Contemporary Poetry
WINTER, by ELIZABETH EBELTOFT
First Line: With crystal needle, flashing bright
Last Line: Above their regal robes of white.
Subject(s): Winter
First Line: With crystal needle, flashing bright
Last Line: Above their regal robes of white.
Subject(s): Winter
With crystal needle, flashing bright,
And fragile threads of dark and light,
Winter weaves, with magic grace,
The pattern of her dreams, in lace.
A scarf she throws across the sky;
Bare hills beneath her mantle lie;
In black and silver, trees are drest;
And homely houses raise their crests
Above their regal robes of white.
