In the Mood for Winter 12/10/09

Oh, what a goodly and a glorious show;

The stately trees have decked themselves with white,


And stand transfigured in a robe of light;


Wearing for each lost leaf a flake of snow.

–Richard Wilton (1827–1903)

Endnote: I came across this poem today and love its evocative imagery, particularly the last line.
