BUT SOFTLY THE MYRIAD SNOW FLAKES FALL


from the ABC set THE NATURAL WORLD - WINTER

But softly the myriad snow flakes fall
These infinite flakes of purest white
Like pure white down of angels wings
Floating gently from heavens height

But this is no heaven sent delight
This thing of beauty that cruelly lingers
For harshly touched is the naked earth
When touched by winters icy fingers

This is good,o true
at the moment.Lile all
of this,particularly the
last stanza.
But this is no heaven sent delight
This thing of beauty that cruelly lingers
For harshly touched is the naked earth
When touched by winters icy fingers.
