Snow
Edward Thomas
1878 to 1917
In the gloom of whiteness,
In the great silence of snow,
A child was sighing
And bitterly saying: "Oh,
They have killed a white bird up there on her nest,
The down is fluttering from her breast."
And still it fell through that dusky brightness
On the child crying for the bird of the snow.
Edward Thomas's Snow
I am busy working to bring Edward Thomas's "Snow" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Edward Thomas's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Snow" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
