THE WINTER FIELDS. WINDS here, and sleet, and frost that bites like steel.The low, bleak hill rounds under the low sky. Naked of flock and fold the fallows he, Thin-streaked with meager drift. The gusts revealBy fits the dim, gray snakes of fence that steal Through the white dusk. The hill-foot poplars sigh, While storm and death with winter tram))le by; And the iron fields ring sharp, and blind lights reel.Yet, in the lonely ridges, wrenched with Dain, Harsh, solitary hillocks, bound and dumb. Grave glebes, close-lipped beneath the scourge and chain,Lurks hid the germ of ecstasy, the simi Of life that waits on summer, till the rain Whisper in April and the crocus come. Charles G. D. Roberts.
