Inside Verse:Hope your holidays find you waltzing in a Winter Wonderland! Back Poem:A Winter Piece
And yet but lately have I seen, e'en here, The Winter in a lovely dress appear. For ev'ry shrub, and ev'ry blade of grass, And ev'ry pointed thorn, seem'd wrought in glass. In pearls and rubies rich the hawthorns show, While thro' the ice the crimson berries glow. The thick-sprung reeds the watry marshes yield, Seem polish'd lances in a hostile field. The stag in limpid currents with surprize Sees crystal branches on his forehead rise. The spreading oak, the beech, and tow'ring pine, Glaz'd over, in the freezing aether shine,. The frighted birds the rattling branches shun, That wave and glitter in the distant sun. When if a sudden gust of wind arise, The brittle forest into atoms flies: The crackling wood beneath the tempest bends, And in a spangled show'r the prospect ends.
-Ambrose Philips
