Question: POETRy!!.!.!.!.!.!?
Let us walk in the white snow

In a soundless space;

With footsteps quiet and slow,

At a tranquil pace,

Under veils of white lace!.



I shall go shod in silk,

And you in wool,

White as white cow's milk,

More beautiful

Than the breast of a gull!.



We shall walk through the still town

In a windless peace;

We shall step upon white down,

Upon silver fleece,

Upon softer than these!.



We shall walk in velvet shoes:

Wherever we go

Silence will fall like dews

On white silence below!.

We shall walk in the snow!.



Elinor Wylie

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The author is inviting one to appreciate the beauty of the snow, the whiteness of winter, in a quiet way, as seen by 'soundless', 'quiet', 'tranquil' emphasising a totally peaceful surrounding in the first paragraph!.
As for what about the snowy scene is the author most trying to convey, it should be the whiteness, since the word 'whiteness' is repeated throughout the poem!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
