Winter occupies


Where does comforts bosom glow
Where lives he a tenant now
In snug places out of doors
Fields or woods or rushy moors
No for winter occupies 
Every bit of earth & skies
Overhead the clouds are dull
Underfoot the roads are full 
Of mire & sludge & water too
That slushes in the ploughmans shoe
& spatters from the hasty horse
That has the meadows floods to cross
