Winter Wind

blow my hair so softly winter wind,
alas! my dear friend "winter cold",
i can feel your touch from the western sky,
that slows the movement of thought and a shivering soul...

you bring stillness,  silence, a chill in the air,
a season of hibernation, laziness,
a season where everything dies a little,
oh a season so bleak and lifeless you wear...

the days are short and fill with such delight,
oh today  i  lack the light of sunlight,
you manage to take away the sun,
that only hangs so thin between night and night...

i will bundle my soul, in the calmness,
in the winter wind of the falling snow,
and i will ascend into the wilderness,
and embrace the beauty you posses!

i have so comely departed the joys of summer,
now i must celebrate the warmth amidst chilly weather!
