by Richard Kendall Munkittrick (1853 - 1911)

Language: English 
Out in the misty morning 
The first snowflakes I see
As they frolic beneath 
The leafless boughs of the apple tree.

Faintly they seem to whisper
As round a boughs they wing;
"We are the ghosts of flowers
Who died in the early spring."

Composition:

    Set to music by Margaret Ruthven Lang (1867 - 1972), "Ghosts", published 1889 [ voice and piano ], Schmidt
