Stars by Robert Frost and Sweet Dream Etchings by Gabriele Schwibach

Stars by Robert Frost

How countlessly they congregate
O'er our tumultuous snow,
Which flows in shapes as tall as trees
When wintry winds do blow!--

As if with keeness for our fate,
Our faltering few steps on
To white rest, and a place of rest
Invisible at dawn,--

And yet with neither love nor hate,
Those starts like some snow-white
Minerva's snow-white marble eyes
Without the gift of sight.

Dreamy etchings by San Francisco Bay Area artist, Gabriele Schwibach. You can view more of her beautiful artwork here. Wishing you a happy Sunday!
