Subject(s): Winter


Barren trees are whipped by winds
Cold and cruel;
Drifting snow-flakes fringe the deep
Frozen pool;
Ghost-like stand the posts with tall
Icy caps;
Great snow pillows hold the fir trees
In their laps;
Bunny rabbits, furry soft,
Scud away:
(Perhaps some hunter fox intends
Foul play!)
The young moon nestles in the clouds,
Scarlet, black...
A winter picture painted clear
For plate or plaque!
