Poem Explanation Poet Analysis

First Line: THE SKY IS LOW, THE CLOUDS ARE MEAN
Last Line: WITHOUT HER DIADEM.

The sky is low, the clouds are mean,
A travelling flake of snow
Across a barn or through a rut
Debates if it will go.
A narrow wind complains all day
How some one treated him;
Nature, like us, is sometimes caught
Without her diadem.
