FIRST SNOW, by CHRISTIAN MORGENSTERN Poet's Biography
First Line: From a grey background, silverly

Subject(s): Snow
First Line: From a grey background, silverly
Last Line: And, oh, most exquisite form, I think of you.
Subject(s): Snow
From a grey background, silverly,
steps a slim doe
into the wood that winter wrought anew
and step by step tests cautiously
the clean, the cool, the freshly-fallen snow.
And, oh, most exquisite form, I think of You.
