The waters flowed freely and giving To parched lands refreshed them
The trees rooted firmly stood to give shade
But when winter came frost yawned and the waters froze
And the trees were cut down to be used as heat
And time crept up and run on the wheels of forgetfulness
No one came to free the waters
None came to tend to the trees
And ice became friends
The ground became haven
And darkness gave peace
And summer came
But the waters remained the same
The trees refused to wake up from theur slumber
And like that Frost stayed by summer never to leave
