A Winter Day by Stephen Teel The morning ot a flawless winter day; In the woods the children play The snow falls slow, The clouds hang low. 'Twas a dismal day yesterday, But it has gone away A hundred lives will die today But not here for it Is fine and gay.

No more do the children play The snow falls slow, The clouds hang low. 'Twas a better day yesterday.

They threw ice and chased each other across the grass. Under the trees and around the letters, they dared to be children again. 14 • Student Life
