February First

 

Welcome February

The Snowdrop Fairy
Poem and art by Cicely Mary Barker

Deep sleeps the Winter,
Cold, wet, and grey;
Surely all the world is dead;
Spring is far away.
Wait! the world shall waken;
It is not dead, for lo,
The Fair Maids of February
Stand in the snow!

  1. This is stunning. I've never seen a real snowdrop, or a fairy for that matter. This is a gorgeous image and a beautiful poem welcoming February.
