Winter

cold red of sunset, cold grey dusk,
the mute melancholy landscape of an icy night,
an atmosphere frozen stiff.

bitter weather shivered with cold,
a huge panorama of the ice age,
an atmosphere frozen stiff.

across it's frozen surface,
deadly chill, powerful cold,
an atmosphere frozen stiff.

the sensation of cold,
more chilling after the flush of joy,
an atmosphere frozen stiff.

dry cold of the night,
pure and frosty darkness,
an atmosphere frozen stiff.

snow breaking crisply,
frozen snow crackle,
the cold was less sharp.
