Cold Winter

COLD WINTER (THE SNOW MAIDEN INCANTATION)
Inspired by the ethreal beauty of beauty. Though harsh and cold it is also needed to bring life to the seeds waiting to regrow, also by the fairytales of snow maidens (the snow queen, the white witch, Snegurochka or Yuki Onna), white sprites made of frost and snow that appear in many cultures.

Cold are the long nights in winter
Cold to the bone
now all is bare long time withered
'neath the dim gleam of a sun
that can't barely make a faint heartbeat
still in the ghost of the day
so down deep
life falls sleep
hidden and safe in its lair
And out in the roaring blizzard
a specter in white roams alone
Her frosty lips humming a song
words catching snow on her tongue
Her haunting wail feels like a shiver
her voice like a whispery moan
cold as the long nights in winter
cold, cold to the bone
Cold are the long nights in winter
cold, cold to the bone
Nothing but dead boughs and splinters
naked and covered in snow
And all is unstirring stillness
Nature is Wise and knows
So down deep
life falls sleep
waiting for warmth to regrow
