A Winter Romance,

a sunbeam loved a snowflake, VI.
So pure and lily white; 1.
He smiled "a her in daytime
And pinned for her at night.
He wanted much TO fold her -
Close to his fiery heart
He loved her. SO he told her,
And hoped they neer should part
But shy sweet little snowflake
Was wary of the sun.
Refused his warm advances
And hid from him in fun.
Said she. Il love a moOnbeam,
Who courts me every night,
He kisses me with moonshine
And makes me silver bright.
But still the brilliant sunbeam
Adored Miss Snowyheart;
He vowed he'd WOO and vim her
And melt her icy heart. i
Right soon the little snowflake
Grew tired Of silver ray;
She longed for golden brightness
That she might shine by day.
So inch by inch she wavered.
Till the ardent. bright suns dart
Caressed and won her over
And warmed her frozen heart.
