I will not lament the cold It's embrace, biting and mighty A long drawn sigh from the Giant's mouth Begins a tale so loved and so old
Her mind was innocent, whimsical and young When the story took life with the old Giant's tongue A little stone house, it's path guarded with snow With a little creek frozen over, not an ebb, nor a floe
Yet a heart of heavy iron did reside in his chest With darkened, old memories He did long to forget Those tired, warm eyes cried cold, frozen tears When that biting, mighty frost came through That to his only beloved son laid rest
