I stood in woods mong leafless treesOne noisy winters day:The winds were not like summers breeze,I thought my hands and feet would freezeBefore I went away. But long I looked with eager eyeFor some little happy bird;And neer was heard the Blue Jays cry,Nor busy Woodpecker pounding nigh,But only winds were heard.
