The Winter Clock

LETRA

The Winter Clock

Press this moment for ever
Into the frozen air
A flower of time
Between the pages of our lives

Let its soft curves and its sharp edges
Live on there
Perfect and unique
As one small flake amid the flurried snow

Let it become like gold
In the honeycomb
A force
Perfect in balance and in tone

Let its power spread
Like the silent strength of a spider's web

Press this moment for ever
From your lips to finger tips
Like a prayer
