Jack Frost

Jealous winter covers the fall leaves below
All the Elm trees frozen fast beneath snow
Calmly Jack presses his nose on the pane 
Keeping composure Jack shall remain sane
Forever frozen are his tears bound within  
Remembering the winter they lived in sin
If only her heart melted like snow 
Shutting out winter she'd suddenly know 
Two hearts freed from the ice below
