The earth lies still beneath its frost,

No motion strained,

No moment lost.

A quiet peace enfolds the land,

A gift we're asked to understand.

The trees stand bare,

Their strength revealed,

No need for leaves,

No wounds concealed.

They teach us grace in letting be,

In restful trust of mystery.

The snow descends with softest care,

It blankets all,

Both here and there.

No haste,

No fight,

No rush to mend,

A pause,

A breath,

Where seasons blend.

Now comes the time to simply rest,

To let the heart grow calm,

Distress,

Its wearied need to cease the chase,

And settle in this sacred space.

The cold may press,

The night seem long,

But even here the light is strong.

It does not flicker,

Fade or flee,

It holds unbound eternity.

No birth,

No end,

No strife,

No test,

Just time to breathe,

A time to rest.

Winter whispers,

Let it go,

In stillness life begins to grow.

So here we rest as seasons turn,

With hearts that seek no need to yearn,

In winter's arms all things align,

The fleeting fades,

The whole is fine.
