One droplet to another whispered
Crystallize, crystallize, crystallize
This was no fall from grace
Earth called for her cold cover
A trillion of snowflakes hover
You’re longing for a warm embrace
A kiss of snow, a kiss of frost
From the love of the frost, no escape
Icicles hanging low from trees
Wandering in the forest, utterly lost
A crushing symphony, snow cracking under feet
Taste of lost lands floating in the air
Barren branches breaking in the distance
Frozen grass and borrowed sounds
An inquisitive hare, vainly searching for a bite
Of something other than frost — a cold and regretful attempt
Deer bolting through the fir trees to escape the hunt
Birds chirping, desperately searching for a seed
Branch snapping with a deafeningly quiet crunch
Hunter’s on the move but he’s walking on eggshells of snow
A quick glance back reveals the nearing danger
An impulsive hop, deer straying to the side
Saved for now, saved by snow, free to dance
Once again in light frozen, until the fall of night
Tender, yet shy, life longs to die
On this cold winter night
Written in collaboration with Angelina Cellura
