A Wintery Day's End lyrics

The winter winds drive hard

The waves whip to the land

And pitch forth spewing art

It drapes the vines and all

In icy brilliance tinted brown

As if old photographs found

The harsh lines smoothed

In its heavy chilling cloak

Sheets extend from the shore

They are as lacework fine

Created by natural artisan

With extended care and patience

The snow covered rocks near

Add contrast pure white, clear

Geese fly to roost in calm

As gulls shriek out, no song

An island's bastion safe harbor

As they survey the shore

Darkness impeding, sun sleeping

Temperatures falling, lamps lit

This world readies for night

Stoic and unrelenting

Where forgiveness is unknown

The bitterness slips in

The ice takes to the land

And the waves muffled below

A steady moaning echoed

The voice of winter's crafts
