WINTER IS FLEETING

Over the winter half freckled with snow half-thawed
The speculating rooks at their nest cawed,
And saw from the elm-tops, delicate as a flower of grass.
What we below could not see,
Winter pass.~Edward Thomas

It is passing, but I won't believe it until we stop using the fireplace to heat our house!
