Break Thy Sleep
When to-night, the shining snow
Fell on forest brown and lea,
Hanging diamonds on the tree;—
When the dazzling world below
Lifted up, all brilliantly,
Stars again, to stars to throw;—
Then I thought of thee...!
White the winter forests sweep
Down to meet the midnight sea,—
Dearest, break thy charmèd sleep,
Dream a winter dream of me.
