Introduction

Crunch

❄️🌲❄️🍂🎄🍂❄️🌲❄️
A Walk Through The Forest Where Gold Has Turned White
Hear The Crunch Of The Frost As You Walk The Path
See Your Cold, Clouded Breath In The Morning Light
❄️🍂🎄🍂❄️
A Cold Wind Is Blowing More Snow From The South
The Leaves Of The Trees With Frost Are Now Whitened
The Forest Is In the Grip Of Winter's Wrath
❄️🍂🎄🍂❄️
Athough We Never Thought This Summer Would End
Autumn Came, Now The Frosts Of Winter Are Here
The Sound Of The First Frost, As Snowflakes Descend
❄️🍂🎄🍂❄️
This White Forest Ushers The End Of The Year
Winter Is With Us, And Autumn Has Now Gone
The Sound Of The First Frost Is What We Now Hear
❄️🍂🎄🍂❄️
Frosted Twigs Shining Silver In Winter's Sun
Ice On Puddles, Cracking Underfoot, Frozen
❄️🌲❄️🍂🎄🍂❄️🌲❄️
