Snow within the Depths of Winter

❄ Move your cursor over the images to unfold the verses ❄

The depths of winter

water drops to ice

still—there are
intricate frost flowers

and pristine icicles on trees

Draped in a heavy coat

trudging through the snow-covered ground
is not without difficulties

Within the piercing winter winds

looking into the distance,
a horizon of snow without end

Within the piercing winter winds

looking into the distance,
a horizon of snow without end

an endless expanse of silver

–at that moment, to truly feel–

the facets of
ice's subtle gentleness

the exalted wonder of snow

The depths of winter

water drops to ice

still—there are
intricate frost flowers

and pristine icicles on trees

Draped in a heavy coat

trudging through
the snow-covered ground
is not without difficulties

Within the piercing winter winds

looking into the distance,
a horizon of snow without end

an endless expanse of silver

–at that moment, to truly feel–

the facets of
ice's subtle gentleness

the exalted wonder of snow
