Winter auii Spring By BETTY COLLEY (4) Wind-swept ice, ermine and silver, Silent lay the shining river, Dark the pines against the sky, Feathery snow-clouds up on high. Silence lays her pall o’er all, Save for intermittent fall Of breaking ice and crackling frost; All in wintry death is lost. Rippling tide and roaring fall, Surging current runs through all; Whirling eddy, singing rill, Serenaded by skylark’s trill. Growing grass and daisies white, Murmuring breeze and sunshine bright, Pines light green against the blue, All earth sings of life anew.
