Robert Frost

Robert Frost always has just the right words... especially when it's cold and you're ready for spring. This one asks for the first storm that brings the spring.

I second Frost's sentiments :o)


To The Thawing Wind

Come with rain. O loud Southwester!
Bring the singer, bring the nester;
Give the buried flower a dream;
make the settled snowbank steam;
Find the brown beneath the white;
But whate'er you do tonight,
bath my window, make it flow,
Melt it as the ice will go;
Melt the glass and leave the sticks
Like a hermit's crucifix;
Burst into my narrow stall;
Swing the picture on the wall;
Run the rattling pages o'er;
Scatter poems on the floor;
Turn the poet out of door.


hope you enjoyed it- stay warm!!
