We are mostly creatures of habit and like things to stay as they are because we are comfortable with that. But change is inevitable.

As Frosti knows, winter’s frost soon turns to spring, and he must be comfortable with that.

**********************************************************************

Frosti, the guardian of icy peace true

Utters a moan as snow melts through.

Wintry days slip from his grasp

He strains to hold them tight

But each flake loses hue.

Spring draws nearer

Let go now,

He sighs,

Warm.
