'7!w8'pfwz'm The snow fell deep in the evening, The trees were covered by dawng And the ground like a blanket of feathers Lay still 'round the sleeping town. The trees and the bushes were bending Witlr the load of fallen snowg And the lakes and the ponds were frozen, And the river no more could flow. So the winter came in the evening VVhen the fall was at the bendg And the earth would be covered with snowdrifts Till this season should come to an end. The above poem was written by Leona Solie as a tenth grade English assigmnent. She rewrote it last year for a local poetry contest in which it received a second place rating. As an award she was given a Certihcate of Acceptance and an anthol- ogy of the best poems entered in the National High School Poetry Contest. Page 56
