More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE
THE FROST MAN


When the moon is shining yellow
In the velvet winter night,
Comes funny little fellow
Clad from head to toe in white;
And through many busy hours,
Till the mellow moonlight wanes
Sketches trees and grass and flowers
On the nursery window panes.
If you hear the faintet tinkling
While the midnight watches pass
You will know that he is sprinkling
Crystal paint upon the glass.
Then he'll take tiny feather,
Moistens it in drops of dew
And he'll blend them an together
In a picture just for you.
Though he knows that you are near
him
He is very, very shy.
And if you should ever hear him
And call out, away he'd fly.
So you'd better take my warming,
And keep still with might and main
Or you'll not find in the morning
Any picture on the pane.
Sometimes, while a nap I'm snatching
AS the moonbeams light the floor
can hear a quiet scratching
Just inside the nursery door,
But I only lie and listen
For 1 know, by rise of sun
Every window pane will glisten
With the picture he has done.
