As the twig drifted downstream,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvGwSWQ7Nj
The icy current bore it away,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX9Y6GVAIc
Half-hidden beneath winter’s hush—514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HpKQAAcb3
A symbol of my frozen heart.
Yet as the days grew long and bright,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKdefFpvOz
The weight of snow began to fade.514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcLPArufOH
Layer by layer, the frost withdrew, and514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD0Hlt4Vnn
My soul stirred from its slumber.
When at last the twig emerged,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyEkyiagK8
Stripped bare, unshackled, free,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KfWqkz7ja
So too did my spirit rise,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLtw5i5zgY
Untangled from the grief I bore.
For even in the depths of winter,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyu0HLnUqK5
There lingers the promise of spring.514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgLK2bql8V
And as the twig was born anew,514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZnI1zbTP3
So, too, was my heart—514Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoxGhqJNE4
Ready once more to embrace the world.
