Explore "A Year's Windfalls" by Christina Georgina Rossetti on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
On the wind of January / Down flits the snow, / Travelling from the frozen North / As cold as it can blow. / Poor robin redbreast, / Look where he comes; / Let him in to feel your fire, / And toss him of your crumbs.
On the wind in February / Snow-flakes float still, / Half inclined to turn to rain, / Nipping, dripping, chill. / Then the thaws swell the streams, / And swollen rivers swell the sea: -- / If the winter ever ends / How pleasant it will be.
