Snow patters at my windowsill As if it knows I'm restless still It speaks soft As if not to bother Sings it's tune So far from sorrow I wonder if the snow Fears it's own tomorrow Whisped away by the northern winds To end up places it had never been Yet lay so still And fall with grace The snow finds home In any old place Each nook and cranny Every branch and landing And though it's cold It's never bitter It warms my heart To see the snow this winter
