Everything's gone green

Galanthus 
(Snowdrop; Greek gála "milk", ánthos "flower"

Snowdrops
I like to think
      That, long ago,
     There fell to earth
               Some flakes of snow
           Which loved this cold, 
            Grey world of ours
          So much, they stayed
                As snowdrop flowers.

    Our snow drops have come and gone; it will soon be time to dispose of their green leaves. Fine poem.
