As the twig drifted downstream,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgLPsuvuoz
The icy current bore it away,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4PAkNevIJ
Half-hidden beneath winter’s hush—529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ718pdy5SqO
A symbol of my frozen heart.
Yet as the days grew long and bright,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIlpLoakBR
The weight of snow began to fade.529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwLVELq2xz
Layer by layer, the frost withdrew, and529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocvzPMN2f0
My soul stirred from its slumber.
When at last the twig emerged,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJ7GtqKEjB
Stripped bare, unshackled, free,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwTwAbIjc8
So too did my spirit rise,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7d6y4aSKO
Untangled from the grief I bore.
For even in the depths of winter,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyptmxJlGIn
There lingers the promise of spring.529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8ISjJZ0YS
And as the twig was born anew,529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxV84Ak5tCV
So, too, was my heart—529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlHJzsoKdG
Ready once more to embrace the world.
