Eternal Winter | 永遠の冬

The wind howls through the empty streets, As snowflakes dance in endless beats. The city sleeps beneath the white, A peaceful hush that blankets the night.

The temples stand in solemn grace, Their roofs adorned with icy lace. The lanterns glow a muted hue, A serene scene, both old and new.

The blizzard rages on and on, Yet in this moment, all is calm. Kyoto shimmers in the cold, A treasure to behold and hold.
