Summary-:
In this poem, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow writes about snow. He writes about one of the most delightful seasons – the Winter.
He begins with the onset of snow and how it wells up from the bosom of the Air and from underneath the hems of the garments the clouds wear. Longfellow never fails his readers when it comes to vivid imagery. He paints a painting and maneuvers the colors to form words so delightful that they directly transport the readers to his world.
As Longfellow continues with the first stanza, he writes about the white, glistening snowflakes over the brown and bare trees, descending ever so softly, so slowly, upon them.
In the second stanza, Longfellow becomes a little philosophical. He writes about the expression of thought upon seeing the snow. The mood changes to a kind of romantic sadness, penetrating through a troubled heart, confessing to the white of Nature, even as the sky follows suit and lets it’s grief out.
The last stanza is a calling to the wind, to the nature around him. Longfellow declares that he wrote it for the woods, the brown bare trees jostled with the gradual snowfall. A wonderful poem is thus summarised by the poet himself in this final stanza.
