Reflections of endless winter The trees overhead are left unclothed Their branches bend as if they were a wise elder Pebbles covered in dew Rusted signs follow the path of the beast A silent engine to watch over the body Waterβs edge, solemn and soulful As it is measured as low-leveled it reflects the sky Reaching to it as if they were connected The hum of birds in return of their journey They are confused as time stood still in the place they once fled from The return shows coldness yet comfort to the creatures building life Light so dim yet vibrancy leaks through shadowed clouds The darkness only intensified the light Light that projected from the small droplets upon glass Little specs of sun, brought from the heavens to give light to the dark world.
