Feel the cold crystals in your fingertips,
feel the change,
feel the water,
feel the warmth,
as your body gives, and once what was snow, takes.
Feel the cold ball as you compress it in the palm of your hand,
feel the change,
feel it harden,
feel the cold grow as
the snowball compacts and becomes icy hard.
Feel your heart beating
put your coldest hand
on your skin and chest,
feel the change in heart rate,
your skin fights the temperature,
and your body and heart give, and what was once cold to you, warmth.

Feel the cold crystals in your fingertips,
feel the change,
feel the water,
feel the warmth,
as your body gives, and once what was snow, takes.
Feel the cold ball as you compress it in the palm of your hand,
feel the change,
feel it harden,
feel the cold grow as
the snowball compacts and becomes icy hard.
Feel your heart beating
put your coldest hand
on your skin and chest,
feel the change in heart rate,
your skin fights the temperature,
and your body and heart give, and what was once cold to you, warmth.
