The gipsy camp


The snow falls deep the Forest lies alone
The boy goes hasty for his load of brakes
Then thinks upon the fire and hurries back
The Gipsy knocks his hands & tucks them up
& seeks his squalid camp half hid in snow
Beneath the oak which breaks away the wind
& bushes close, with snow like hovel warm
