The chill in the air, crisp and clear,
The snow-covered streets, so austere,
The quietness broken by a passing deer,
A moment of magic, so sincere.

The lanterns flicker, casting shadows tall,
As the snowflakes continue to fall,
The beauty of this moment, standing so small,
A serendipitous memory, cherished by all.
