WINTER DAYS by JEAN HOLMES MINTY

First Line: TODAY I THINK THE FAIREST THING I KNOW
Last Line: ON MANY WINTER DAYS FOR ONE OF PEACE.
Subject(s): INTROSPECTION; PEACE; WINTER;

Today I think the fairest thing I know
Is bare tree branches pencilled on the snow.

And yesterday I could not seem to hide
My pleasure in the boisterous storm outside.

Tomorrow, maybe, I would trade my lease
On many winter days for one of peace.
