"Blizzard" by William Carlos Williams

 

Blizzard


Snow:

years of anger following

hours that float idly down

the blizzard

drifts its weight

deeper and deeper for three days

or sixty years, eh? Then

the sun! a clutter of

yellow and blue flakes

Hairy looking trees stand out

in long alleys

over a wild solitude.

The man turns and there

his solitary track stretched out

upon the world.




Enjoy the poem with beautiful music.
