Down the long course of the gray slush of things
Beneath the snowflakes I notice fa?des
The ordinary, wide scene which begins
One flash of eye, or blow one clarion-blast;
Away, my songs, must we go
Sphinx of questioning substance, or a sort
Summer bees were saying
And I would like
Calling me to you with wild gesturings
Place of absorbing snow, itself to be
He is harsh, dismal, ice뾲hat is, exiled;
I am sleeping, and dreaming, and wandering along
It's snowing, it's returning to a town
watching calisthenics from the grandstands.
Amid the gloom, there, on the pole, stands black
People might see to be the opening
Wheezing ravens, when
But what I am looking at is hardened snow,
He never even dreams, being sheer snow;
