First Line: Pale from the watery west, with the pallor of winter a-cold
Last Line: As I wait for my love in the fir-tree alley alone with the sun.
Subject(s): Winter


Pale from the watery west, with the pallor of winter a-cold,
Rays of the afternoon sun in a glimmer across the trees;
Glittering moist underfoot, the long alley. The firs, one by one,
Catch and conceal, as I saunter, and flash in a dazzle of gold
Lower and lower the vanishing disc; and the sun alone sees
As I wait for my love in the fir-tree alley alone with the sun.
