Wintry Grey

Frozen streams and vapours gray
Cold and waste the landscape lay…
Then a hale of wind
Hither-Whirling, Thither-Swilrling
Spinn the fog and spinn the mist…
Still we walked on through woods and wintry gray
Home through woods where winter lay — Cold and dark…
(Waiting for a change in the weather
Waiting for a shift in the air
Could we get there together, ever?
Waiting for our late, late return)
Through the woods. Home through the woods where winter lay…
