White horse on a green hill

A sign of human life

Visible from afar

White horse on a hillside near Westbury seen from a train window

In London the rain lightly falls

And the leaden grey sky appals

Upon leaves it drips

Running to their tips:

This very foul weather truly galls

A wild wind blows,

Weeping willows sway:

Maybe spring is in the offing
