Ben Ferrett Magical Winter Nights

The moonlight, a soft glow on the gloomy nights Illuminates the slumbering landscape The frost begins to sparkle gracefully on the city’s windows As time slows and the streets start to appear deserted The street lamps peer down on the empty pavements The icy winds, whisper through the streets In the quiet embrace of a cold winter night, Where the stars shimmer, distant and bright The wind sings a lullaby to the people sleeping Footsteps echo in the icy air, Leaving imprints in the snow, a story to share
