THE FROST FAIRY.
OF all of the Fairies the children know
And read about, day by day,
The Frost is the chap that they love to watch,
With his pictures so bright and gay.
They know if the weather is clear and cold
When they jump into bed at night:
In the morning the windows will sparkle and gleam
With his pictures of glistening white.
And they are such wonderful pictures, too,—
So skilfully carved and drawn!
How charming they look when they’re all lit up
By the gray of the Wintry Dawn!
He never exhibits the same ones twice,
But thousands of weird designs
Are shown in his pictures of flowers and trees,
With their feathery sprays and lines.
