Momentarily

like a branch in winter's wrath weighted down pale and bare ready to snap coming undone drooping downward numb to touch then the sun smiles on you the warmth melts your heart just enough to lift you back up even if only until the next blizzard comes and burdens you again you are free momentarily

Perfect for this time of year and any season of life when a bright spot warms the coldness within. Nice image.
