Welcome Back!!!! Today we will take a look the poem, "The Snow man" by Wallace Stevens 

I also forgot to mention in the episode that in most cases the word "Snowman" is one word, yet Wallace Stevens spells it "Snow Man" in the title. Take that for whatever you want it to be.

The Snow Man

One must have a mind of winter

To regard the frost and the boughs

Of the pine-trees crusted with snow;

And have been cold a long time

To behold the junipers shagged with ice,

The spruces rough in the distant glitter

Of the January sun; and not to think

Of any misery in the sound of the wind,

In the sound of a few leaves,

Which is the sound of the land

Full of the same wind

That is blowing in the same bare place

For the listener, who listens in the snow,

And, nothing himself, beholds

Nothing that is not there and the nothing that is.
