Winter Service Uniform

    “all ignorance toboggans into know
    and trudges up to ignorance again:
    but winter’s not forever, even snow
    melts; and if spring should spoil the game, what then?

    all history’s a winter sport or three:”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    “We too are ashes as we watch and hear
    The psalm, the sorrow, and the simple praise
    Of one whose promised thoughts of other days
    Were such as ours, but now wholly destroyed,
    The service record of his youth wiped out,
    His dream dispersed by shot, must disappear.”
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    “The maples
    Stood uniform in buckets, and the steam
    Of sap and snow rolled off the sugarhouse.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
