Winter Whisper
The air is blue and keen and cold,
With snow the roads and fields are white.
But here the forest´s clothed with light
And in a shining sheath enrolled
Each branch, each twig, each blade of grass,
Seems clad miraculously with glass.
For in that solemn silence
Is heard the whisper of every sleeping thing:
"Look, look at me,
come wake me up for still there I´ll be".
