    Today's poem on Penny's Poetry Blog:
    Moods of March, by Ellen P. Allerton
    [...]
    Loud is the voice of the raging storm;
    As the fierce gusts come and go;
    Black are the panes where the black night leans
    Like a homeless ghost in the snow

    Very good, new poet to me...

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellen_Palmer_Allerton

    **************** Ellen Palmer Allerton (October 17, 1835 – August 31, 1893) was an American poet whose inspiration probably came from her life on farms in rural New York, Wisconsin, and Kansas. She is best remembered for the poems Beautiful Things,
    The Trail of Forty-Nine and Walls of Corn **************************

    This turns out to be the third poem I've used by her. I haven't been
    able to add much to the Wikipedia bio on PPP, just a few links to poems
    (on the blog and Poetry Nook, which has over 100), and a reading I found
    online of her poem, "Blackbirds".

    I remember her previous poems on PPB dimly, again, a refresher is in order here.
