Staring at the moon on cold winter's night
Relaxing in its pale glow
The ground shimmering
In sheets of frost.

Breath turns to crystals while
Floating throughout the night
Winter shows it beauty
Within the icy sky

Pools of water freeze
Their jagged edges reminding me
Memories of winters past
Thoughts of years gone by

Sitting alone on a clear winter's night
My heartbeat and breath the only sounds around
A sigh grants me a taste of the air,
The familiar taste of snow
