DARK DAYS
The mountain tops are covered with snow, What to do, the animals do not know; They have to be fed with hay all day, All through the winter month of May, But wc should not think of this, Because if snow did not fall the winter we'd miss. One evening when I teas in bed, I heard soft spots of snow on the window pane. “The white snow is falling,’’ I said, And. in the morning the lane B’as white as though it was fairyland, And oh it was so soft, softer , than sand. —Original, by “Everlasting Daisy,” Shannon.
