Icy Dawns

Let the warm weather 
       go!
We're ready for icy dawns
      In the  of winter
           we'll find a home
The air will be
       bitterly cold
  but we'll breathe it in 
           nonetheless
     Crystalline snowflakes
  paint the world in white
        as we walk in the 
evening
          our spirits reach
  for the sky
Though  storm clouds dance above
We still dare to exsist 
       here on Earth
The seaons pass in their usual rotation
  Spring, summer, winter, fall
Our eyes have seen them all
        Huddling together 
    we defy 
                 the elements
and laugh into the wind
