SNOW<br />

There is a lot of snow,<br />

They sell Christmas Trees on squares<br />

And someone expects irrationally,<br />

That just today is the girls return,<br />

To the merry rally,<br />

And that all of us together,<br />

Dad and we and Kasia, will be forever.<br />

PAGE 60<br />

Snow is fall<strong>in</strong>g quietly outside the w<strong>in</strong>dow,<br />

The last traces of t<strong>in</strong>y feet disappeared on the road,<br />

In the white storm of the time, everyth<strong>in</strong>g is lost,<br />

But our God sits <strong>in</strong> the even<strong>in</strong>g under the tree,<br />

We believe; he is close when we have a cup of tea.<br />
