We only know what we know,
                  but know there is change.
          Indeed we know the darkness,
             and will wait here
                             for the light;
               a little more each day.
                   We do not always know
                    what will come or when
                          it will arrive and
distinguish between light and heat.
     It will only become colder
     before we reach the brightness
     and warmth of spring.
     Day by day, a little more.
                         We settle in for winter,
                                   so much remains.
                  We must remain content
                   knowing what will come.
