I wonder on what levels she meant it to be read? I first read it as a simple poem of hope. Then I wondered if AM had thought of it as life, death and resurrection.

It was written by Annie Matheson, who lived 1853-1924. I love it and can't read it aloud without wanting to cry.....no idea why it gets me that way!! I originally found it in a newspaper, and cut it out and kept it in the file in the kitchen. I had a clear out yesterday and found it. Appropriate for this time of year.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02576715462615744934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132582821010486689.post-12638716810918521412019-01-09T09:17:55.169+00:002019-01-09T09:17:55.169+00:00Same here, Frances.
