Let us walk in the white snow
 In a soundless space;
With footsteps quiet and slow,
 At a tranquil pace,
 Under veils of white lace.
 
I shall go shod in silk,
 And you in wool,
White as white cow's milk,
 More beautiful
 Than the breast of a gull.
 
We shall walk through the still town
 In a windless peace;
We shall step upon white down,
 Upon silver fleece,
 Upon softer than these.
 
We shall walk in velvet shoes:
 Wherever we go
Silence will fall like dews
 On white silence below.
 We shall walk in the snow.
