I met you when I was young
You were fairly young too
Something in your eyes spoke to me
I’d never seen that shade of blue
We found love instantly. Almost
Like in the blink of an eye
I still think about you being in my life
We were birds on a branch
Singing in the wind
I’ve now come to terms
I’ll never see you again
You’ve gone your separate ways
I guess I have too
That doesn’t stop me from thinking of you.

Welcome to the Winners Announcement for The Ritual of Winter challenge. This prompt focused on winter rituals and the meaning that settles into them over time. The top pieces stay grounded in ordinary acts and repeated routines, letting winter shape the work through pace, attention, and restraint.
