THE .MARCH SNOW STORM IN ALBION 1 look out of my sindow At the snowstorm. At the whirl-dance of the hlindini; storm. No sk - abo e ; No earth below; .• sk ' . a uniserse of snow. A universe peopled with winded flakes Caught up, held there — Then flung on thru the air. Helpless, impotent against their dri - ing force The wind. The soul, the spirit of the storm. The howling, screeching spirit of the storm. One flake strikes against the glass But melts, insignificant thing! I watch it pass. But another comes: another comes aiul sta s. ,Another and another, until I am re- luctantly shut (lut. Baffled! The dance .uoes on without me. The wind laughs his derision. I low Is and passes on Slamming a door to tell us of his pass- ing. The wintlow stifles me: 1 fling it wide. The snow rushes in anel the wiml he- side. The wind-drnen flakes of snow and si eel Like ic fuigers smite m ' cheek. I ;uii part of the storm again.
