Who Kknows If the Moon...
by ee cummings
 
who knows if the moon's a balloon, coming out of a keen city in the sky
filled with pretty people? (and if you and i should get into it,
if they should take me and take you into their balloon. why then we'd go up higher with all the pretty people than houses and steeples and clouds: go sailing away and away sailing into a keen city which nobody's ever visited,where
always it's Spring)and everyone]s in love and flowers pick themselves

Winter Snow
by Eleanor Hammond
 
Winter Woods
By Eleanor Hammond
The winter wood is like a strong old man, Grizzled, rugged, and gray, With long white locks tattered by many storms. He lifts gnarled arms defiant of the blasts, And rears his old head proudly Under the menace of the winter sky. from Family Friend Poems, https://www.familyfriendpoems.com/poem/winter-woods-by-eleanor-hammond
 
First Snow Haiku
by Kobayashi Issa
the year's first snow all trampled... by the crows
