Winter Cottage

A quiet cottage nestles among snow-laden trees, its roof heavy with white.
Smoke drifts lazily from the chimney, curling into the cold, still air.
Tree branches bend low, guarding the home in gentle silence.
Inside, candlelight flickers against frosted windowpanes.
Footsteps crunch softly on the path, then vanish into hush.
The world is wrapped in white and wonder, peaceful and slow.
Here, winter lingers like a dream, untouched and timeless.
