ICE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: When winter scourged the meadow and the hill
Last Line: Wherein to sit and watch the fury pass.
Subject(s): Ice; Nature; Winter


When Winter scourged the meadow and the hill
And in the withered leafage worked his will,
The water shrank, and shuddered, and stood still,—
Then built himself a magic house of glass,
Irised with memories of flowers and grass,
Wherein to sit and watch the fury pass.
