Winter's Embrace

Shivering in the cold air She witnessed her own breath Torn clothes, feet bare Oh how she wished for just a tiny flare The bleak winds swept so unkind White clouds hid the sun behind The snow was cold –her skin it pierced Nature itself seemed to have her cursed Her stomach churned For food it yearned Throat burnt with thirst Life was at worst A sign for life she wanted to see A human soul to hear her plea But all she had gotten Was winter chill and being forgotten And now the storm is too strong to face So she falls gladly into Winter's embrace
