Happy Holidays from the
The Longfellow Garden Club
Out of the bosom of the air, Out of the cloud-folds of her garments shaken, Over the woodlands brown and bare, Over the harvest-fields forsaken, Silent, and soft, and slow Descends the snow. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Snow-Flakes, from Birds of Passage (Flight the Second), 1863
