A snowy landscape with a person looking out into the distance at a mountain range shrouded in misty clouds with a sun peeking through them in the background.
Oh woe is me, this cold of December, A chill that sets my bones a-tremble. The wind howls through the barren tundra, And frosty air brings forth its kindle. This year's chill surpasses all before, As temperatures dip far below the floor. What's more, it has descended from the north, From Yukon to the Lower Forty-Eight. My breath is visible in front of me; It seems like I can touch the snowflakes' glee. But I must stay warm and keep my head high; This winter won't last forever and by and by.
