A Poem

Everything has fallen asleep

Once so vibrant and filled with color,

They're now stilled by something other.

The landscape experiences fleeting death

Like that of a frozen heart

Hopeful that everything will restart

Animals gather and prepare

They sleep or they thrive

In a world that seems so unalive

But where one snowflake breaks,

Another will form

The cycle continues until all becomes warm

The silence of ice

The stillness of trees

The feel of an active, beautiful breeze

If this world can awaken

From something so still

Then a heart can too once again fill

Everything's asleep

And beauty's around

In a frozen world that makes

One finally feel found
