The poem describes snowdrop flowers as flakes of snow that fell to Earth long ago and loved the cold grey world so much that they stayed rather than melting away, personifying the flowers as remnants of snow that chose to remain on the ground.

5. 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. “ Snowdrops” a poem by Mary Vivien
