THE WINDOW-PANE TREE.

Previous
With her warm little finger,
Gold Locks wrote
On the icy window-pane
A note.
“Make me a Christmas-tree,”
It read;
It was signed with a flourish,
“Yours, Gold Head.”
Then out came the sunlight’s
Sparkling ray;
It melted the message
All away.
But the very next morning,
Lo! behold!
On the glass of the window,
White and cold,
Was a tapering fir-tree,
Weighed with snow,
Spire-like at the top,
And broad below.
Cried out little Gold Locks,
“See, oh, see!
Jack Frost has painted
My Christmas-tree!”
