In the thick of a teeming snowfall
I saw my shadow on snow.
I turned and looked back up at the sky,
Where we still look to ask the why
Of everuthing below.

If I shed such a darkness,
If the reason was in me,
The shadow of mine should show in form
Against the shapeless shadow of storm,
How swarthly I must be.

I turned and looked back upward.
The whole sky was blue;
Ahd the thick flakes floating at a pause
Where but frost knots on an airy gauze,
With the sun shining through.
