<h3> The Frozen Brook<br/> </h3>
<p class="poem">
The winter woods lie gray and still<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">Beneath the dreary sunless skies,</SPAN><br/>
The brook that rippled down the hill<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">In summer hours, all silent lies.</SPAN><br/></p>
<p class="poem">
And though its breast by ice is bound,<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">By bending low and listening long,</SPAN><br/>
I hear a faint and far-off sound—<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">The echo of a summer song.</SPAN><br/></p>
<p class="poem">
O weary heart, though cold and drear<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">The days along thy pathway seem,</SPAN><br/>
To Nature's breast bend low thine ear<br/>
<SPAN STYLE="margin-left: 1em">And listen to its pulsing stream.</SPAN><br/></p>
