"Beneath the Winter's Breath"
"The Fragility of Winter's Peace"
It's winter here,
It's summer there.
Cold air brushing your skin,
Fog that clouds your vision within.
Like a fairy's dream,
The sun's cover envelopes you, it seems,
Like a mother's lap, so warm,
Blankets wrapping you in a storm.
You lie curled up in your bed,
Sweaters making your arms tuck in red.
Snow chills that make your cheeks turn pink,
You enjoy it, don't you, as you think?
But here's a truth, a fact to bear:
Somebody's destroying this season so rare.
Guess who?

Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Ah, this poem has such a cozy winter vibe, pulling us right into the frosty magic! But that twist—calling out the quiet villain at the end? A playful yet serious nudge to reflect.🤗✨
Definitely humans, that's who, lol. Loved your poem!
Guess who: Our unbothered behavior towards the atmosphere and pollution of all kinds. "Snow chills that make your cheeks turn pink," such a relatable line ✨💖 Keep it up, Anwesha ✨
This is very deep, thought-provoking, and wonderful. I like these lines very much: ✨🌿 'Fog that clouds your vision within. Like a fairy's dream. I guess humans are the answer to your Q.
A beautiful contrast between seasons! the closing lines introduce a thought-provoking challenge: the impact of climate change on our seasons. It's a timely and important message to consider.
