Austere Snow


Catherine Chandler, February 1952


Poem 942 by Emily Dickinson


Snow beneath whose chilly softness
Some that never lay
Make their first Repose this Winter
I admonish Thee

Blanket Wealthier the Neighbor
We so new bestow
Than thine acclimated Creature
Wilt Thou, Austere Snow?






Miss you, Dad . . .
