Ode to Snow
*Here I try to imitate William Carlos Williams’ style. The second half suffered some formatting issues when I uploaded the text onto the website. The last two lines were not separated from the second half.
The snow
flying
ignorant
of spring's
lateness
posing
on branches
pretending
new flowers
Original Poem (composed in ancient Chinese or Wenyan):
咏雪 半首
飞雪不知春尚早，却挂枝头扮新花。
