Snow Flakes.
Like an army OF white phantome
Marching slowly through the air.
From viewless field OF shadows
They are falling everywhere;
And the brown leaves that are drifting,
Wavin : in the mystic host.
Seem as banners they are bearing
To plant DER the campaign post.
They are laid within the valley,
Like winding sheet that's spre ID
Der the blighted forest flowers
or the summer that is dead
And their froze checks are pressing
Graves OF those who perished when
They departed from lies pathway,
And went from the walks OF men;
And the shrubs with arms uplifting
Lano OF transparent eDow,
Seem an elfin legion battling
With some other elfln foe.
Each one It's Own journey taketh
Through the ether tracks OF space,
And wherever it hath fallen
1t oannot remove it's place;
Thus in life's eventful journey
=. Both each mortal shape his way,
Wand his years may sink in darkness,
Or decline in light OF day.
