The Alabaster Ball

THE ALABASTER BALL Earth sent invitations To a danse one night Requesting all invited Please – to come in white. The glass-coached clouds assembled And the Ebon Sky Banked its brightest fire, Snuffed each candled eye. Then the Winds belled music Set a whirling pace And down the Heavens Waltzed the Snows, In their finest lace.
