Gray skies upward fling In the vap'rous breath of Spring Melting mounds of snow Trickling rivulets slow
Lines of feathered travelers Nature's hope inspiring harbingers Vee Northward o'erhead Calling high and loud and long Their ceaseless journey song.
Houses buried far below Including the one we own Beneath the weight of heavy snow Crack complainingly and groan, Wait with unknowing strain Warm sun's shine to own.
