A Ripple in Winter's Water

About many sounds in nature that many people wouldn't usually pay attention to.

A ripple in winter's water,
So calm and light.
Not hiding under a sheet of ice.
Once it spoke of a farther winter,
But it also spoke of a happy summer.

A mouse quickly messing the fallen leaves,
Hoping to head home
To its small retreat.
It hides along with its tiny family,
Waiting for the cold to finally complete.

A leaf of an evergreen tree,
Swaying at the murmurs of its forest,
Peaceful and calm,
Watching the winter pass.

We don't notice the sounds of winter,
We're so busy in our own bubble.
But take a walk,
To stop,
And listen to the marvellous music,
Nature has played.
