As the twig drifted downstream,518Please respect copyright.PENANAQXANWEFOyd
The icy current bore it away,518Please respect copyright.PENANAGTQXiMF0fV
Half-hidden beneath winter’s hush—518Please respect copyright.PENANAhPLpDzetvv
A symbol of my frozen heart.
Yet as the days grew long and bright,518Please respect copyright.PENANAWSI98daIhy
The weight of snow began to fade.518Please respect copyright.PENANAPOqzmyBFCo
Layer by layer, the frost withdrew, and518Please respect copyright.PENANAxRAyBJzryY
My soul stirred from its slumber.
When at last the twig emerged,518Please respect copyright.PENANAQCZE58jJr3
Stripped bare, unshackled, free,518Please respect copyright.PENANAS5zuyDqskH
So too did my spirit rise,518Please respect copyright.PENANAOLIllGtsBc
Untangled from the grief I bore.
For even in the depths of winter,518Please respect copyright.PENANA7xpQdFVIPI
There lingers the promise of spring.518Please respect copyright.PENANA6Fwg7RdLt8
And as the twig was born anew,518Please respect copyright.PENANA7CQ5okKTLN
So, too, was my heart—518Please respect copyright.PENANAamrVmzugDS
Ready once more to embrace the world.
