Winter withoutB
And warmth withinC
The winds may shoutB
And the storm beginC
The snows may packD
At the window paneE
And the skies grow blackD
And the sun remainE
Hidden awayF
The livelong dayF
But here in here is the warmth of MayF

-
Swoop your spitefullestF
Up the flueG
Wild Winds doG
What in the world do I care for youG
O delightfullestG
Weather of allH
Howl and squallH
And shake the trees till the last leaves fallH
-
III-
-
The joy one feelsI
In an easy chairJ
Cocking his heelsI
In the dancing airJ
That wreathes the rim of a roaring stoveK
Whose heat loves better than hearts can loveL
Will not permitG
The coldest dayG
To drive awayG
The fire in his blood and the bliss of itG
-
IVL
-
Then blow Winds blowM
And rave and shriekN
And snarl and snowM
Till your breath grows weakN
While here in my roomO
I'm as snugly shutG
As a glad little wormP
In the heart of a nutG
