| 2. Beclouded |
| |
| THE sky is low, the clouds are mean, | |
| A travelling flake of snow | |
| Across a barn or through a rut | |
| Debates if it will go. | |
| |
| A narrow wind complains all day | 5 |
| How some one treated him; | |
| Nature, like us, is sometimes caught | |
| Without her diadem. | |
