Famous Nature Poem

Everything changes and slows down in winter. The world seems empty, and time moves slowly. For many, it can be a difficult season to get through, but one day, everything will return, and things will be restored.

Famous Poem

No Songs In Winter

By more Thomas Bailey Aldrich

The sky is gray as gray may be,
There is no bird upon the bough,
There is no leaf on vine or tree.

In the Neponset marshes now
Willow-stems, rosy in the wind,
Shiver with hidden sense of snow.

So too 't is winter in my mind,
No light-winged fancy comes and stays:
A season churlish and unkind.

Slow creep the hours, slow creep the days,
The black ink crusts upon the pen--
Just wait till bluebirds, wrens, and jays
And golden orioles come again!
