      Winter Echoes - Lan Donne

      Crystalline Reflections

      In morning light they shimmer bright,

      Each facet speaks of winter's flight.

      With gentle grace, they catch the eye,

      A dance of sparks where dreams comply.

      Upon the chill, they softly sit,

      A canvas white where shadows flit.

      Lost in their charm, the heart will sway,

      In ice-cold moments, love finds a way.

      Beneath the frost, a secret glows,

      Yet warmth emerges, as sunlight flows.

      What once was still begins to move,

      In crystalline, the heart approves.

      Fading Footprints in Snow

      Beneath the weight of winter's veil,

      Each step a story, soft yet frail.

      A trail of whispers, lost and found,

      In snowy silence, dreams are bound.

      The sun will rise, the warmth will creep,

      Yet memories in ice still keep.

      With every step, the past will fade,

      In fleeting beauty, life is made.

      Yet in this quiet, echoes stay,

      As melting snow marks yesterday.

      The heart recalls each whispered sigh,

      In fading footprints, friendships lie.

      A Melody of Silent Nights

      Under the stars, the world holds breath,

      In hushed repose, far from death.

      The moonlit sky, a velvet dome,

      Tunes linger soft, calling us home.

      With every breeze, a sweet refrain,

      The night’s embrace, a gentle chain.

      In whispered tones, the shadows play,

      While dreams unfurl in soft ballet.

      A symphony of twilight hums,

      As silence gathers, soft heart drums.

      In the stillness, find your light,

      A melody, our souls unite.

      Frigid Embrace of Twilight

      As daylight wanes, the chill descends,

      In twilight's grasp, the daylight bends.

      The air is crisp, a biting kiss,

      In shadows deep, we find our bliss.

      With every breath, the world stands still,

      In frosted whispers, hearts can fill.

      Each moment lingers, soft and slow,

      In twilight's grip, the embers glow.

      The sky ablaze in hues of blue,

      A canvassed dream that calls to you.

      As night unveils its cloak once more,

      In frigid embrace, we dare explore.

      Secrets Held Beneath the Ice

      Beneath the frost, whispers lie,

      In silence deep, mysteries sigh.

      Time wraps them tight, in layers cold,

      Stories of ages, yet untold.

      Shadows dance in winter's breath,

      Echoes of life, a lingering death.

      The surface gleams, a deceptive light,

      Hiding the past, in depth and night.

      Footsteps trace on a frozen seam,

      Revealing hopes, a fractured dream.

      Glances exchanged, unspoken fears,

      Each hidden tale, steeped in tears.

      Chalices frozen, once full of grace,

      Now just reflections, a weary face.

      Yet beneath the freeze, warmth may swell,

      Within the ice, secrets dwell.

      As the thaw comes, truth emerges,

      Glistening shards, the heart converges.

      From depths of cold, life breaks free,

      Unraveling secrets, a new decree.

      Ghostly Echoes of the Past

      In twilight's grip, shadows creep,

      Whispers linger, secrets keep.

      Footfalls soft on ancient ground,

      Lost in memories, shadows bound.

      Faded portraits, eyes that stare,

      Stories woven in silent air.

      Time’s embrace, a gentle sigh,

      Echoes linger, never die.

      Through crumbling halls, voices wail,

      Haunting tales that tell a tale.

      Reflections dance in muted light,

      Ghostly figures, lost from sight.

      Each corner turned, a history found,

      Whispers of love, loss, unbound.

      A fleeting glance, a heart's remorse,

      Nightly visits from a spectral course.

      Memories stir in the fading dusk,

      Within the silence, a fragrant musk.

      Embrace the shadows, let them roam,

      For in these echoes, we find our home.

      A Symphony of Crystal Whispers

      In the stillness of the night,

      Crystal echoes take their flight.

      Whispers dance on silver air,

      Softly weaving dreams laid bare.

      Stars above, a shimmering veil,

      Each glimmer tells a secret tale.

      Nature holds its breath in peace,

      As the crystal songs increase.

      Moonlight spills like liquid glass,

      Glisten where the shadows pass.

      Every note a gentle sigh,

      Carried by the night’s soft cry.

      Trees stand tall, their branches sway,

      To the melody at play.

      In this world of frozen grace,

      Harmony in time and space.

      A symphony of calm unfolds,

      As the night reveals its folds.

      In each heartbeat, whispers sound,

      In this magic, we're unbound.

      The Solace of a Snowy Night

      Blanket white over the ground,

      Silence reigns, no other sound.

      Moonbeams kiss the frosty earth,

      In this still, a quiet mirth.

      Footprints pressed in powdery fluff,

      Nature's quilt, so soft, so tough.

      Stars peek through the
