As the twig drifted downstream,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj01lkhPhW5
The icy current bore it away,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdKvGA7LFF
Half-hidden beneath winter’s hush—433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMS3xG8EFM
A symbol of my frozen heart.
Yet as the days grew long and bright,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2IdwRpFFr
The weight of snow began to fade.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHONlABEVPr
Layer by layer, the frost withdrew, and433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe03ZikjiB
My soul stirred from its slumber.
When at last the twig emerged,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWcciN1RsQ
Stripped bare, unshackled, free,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkJ8xWxqzl
So too did my spirit rise,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwZM8MfQEN
Untangled from the grief I bore.
For even in the depths of winter,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9a0n5pZOg
There lingers the promise of spring.433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7O4H0UnJ9
And as the twig was born anew,433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsVBbCgpfW
So, too, was my heart—433Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmWp9bcQdB
Ready once more to embrace the world.
