Poem – Winter

I welcome you, frost
I welcome you, silence
I look forward to the spring
I’ll choose you every time

But now I just want to keep warm
Or to fall asleep
And bide in oblivion
Of your flaring heat

I welcome you, snow
To conceal my pain
I welcome forgetfulness
So I can remain

I look forward to the spring
I’ll choose you every time
Let’s rise in awakening
When I hear your chime

Share your love
