Who understands my yearning for winter,

In this land of heat and sun?

The sultry weather has conceived

An agony similar to drowning-

Overwhelming during summer's peak.



An ache grew for the bitter-sweet

Bite of frigid cold, where the

sun's heated gaze could not warm.



On tepid evenings, I languished

Over old memories of snowy nights-

So painfully quiet that each flake

Sounded like a pin dropping.



Cold, but pleasantly so- under

The bundle of quilted jackets, the

Chill could not penetrate.



New snowfall twinkled so sweetly

Under the glow of ancient streetlamps,

Leaving an impression forever

treasured with a deep anguish.
I never thought I'd miss the snow so much!
