Seasons of Life by Audrey Cofield



Curved Corner

Snow

Oh! the mysterious power of falling snow
Why does it set young hearts aglow?
Why do the aged look on in despair
As flakes fall from Heaven to earth every where?
Why must the old be stricken with fear
And be deprived of the winter's cheer?
Oh, to be young again starry-eyed once more
Instead of decrepit, insouciant and hoar!
