Snow Storm by Julien Edmund Moss

Snow Storm

Winter snow falls as the sun descends
My Lady changes dress tonight
E’er green was the landscape this morn
Come tomorrow, all is white

Rolling mountains and thundering hills
Cast dreamy nightscapes with moonlight’s quills
Which write the day and reflect light
It’s just the snow that makes things white

Neptune blue, like Isis true,
Through and through, it’s icy too
The lake is smooth on this cold eve
It reigns in cool on this old reed

Hurried footprints
A light in the distance
Birds fly upright
They are all white

Hush now, child!
Step into the white-
Step into the light…
