Back

I #Wander forth this #Chill #December dawn
John #Frost & all his #Elves... I see,
Busy as the #Fairy #World can be,
Clothing a Sleepy #World w/ #Fleecy #Lawn.

Mid the #Blue #Silence of #Evening hours
They #Glimmer duskly down in #Silent #Showers,

A #Hush of #Music on the #Air -
White-winged #Fays #Falter everywhere.

& Here & There,
a #Sudden #Mingling as they fall,
There comes a softer #Lullaby than all,
Swept up in the #Universal #Prayer.

- Robert Buchanan, Scottish #Poet, #Snow
