Even when days get dark
and Winter claims the land
There is also a spark
That can never be banned
A star amongst its kind
Cold and white
Can make everything repulsive to the mind
Shiny and bright
It can become a special kind of skin
Spread over a landscape with a white glow
Darkness can be cleansed from its sin
And that is the beauty of snow
