Breath of Snow

The snow breathes softly and learns to tell,
tracing luminous frost threads upon the glass.
Every stroke whispers of distant days,
while the window listens, mute and attuned.
The secrets of the rooms unfold to its cold breath,
reflections of lamps, cups, and light steps.
The snow writes them in crystal, brief and tender,
and the glass holds the voice until the world is silent.
