FINAL: The speaker expresses concern for the plight of birds and animals struggling to survive in the harsh conditions.

Burns' spelling of a Scottish dialect reminds me somewhat of Kipling, complete with commas for omitted letters. 'An' close thy e'e? ' The poem shows compassion for the helpless bird.

O' winter war, And thro' the drift, deep-lairing, sprattle, Beneath a scar......./// beautiful poetic expression

Very interesting and beautifully composed. Lovely reading

With the publication of this amazing poem, PH has given a befitting tribute to Robert Burns today. He was born on 25th January,1759.

Winter night knocks the door of beauty of benevolence and it glorifies life. This poem is definitely very nicely motivates mind.

Very pretty lines of poetry. We felt it.

Indeed this poem is written by a wizard of poesy, and it takes a wizard analyst to analyze it.... Whao strikes most is the brevity and dexterity so far displayed in this piece of poesy. Though i wouldn't fail to mention that the vigour of winter breeze is seriously felt, even though i wasn't there. It is eve running through me now. I'm afraid if such wind comes now our glass windows will be bashed.

pitiless the tempest wild, good write, thanks.

Effect of storm is very well exposed in this poem by a special of action also! Wonderfully composed poem takes us to the very scene!
