Lumi's Song of Winter

In a land where winter arrived early and stayed late, there was a

valley that seemed to belong only to snow. The mountains guarded it from harsh

winds. And the sky above often looked like a quiet stage waiting for

music. In the center of this valley stood a small village.

And in the center of the village stood a snowman. He did not

know that day he was born to be special. Children rolled snow, laughed,

argued about the size of his head. Gave him a name in cold

eyes and a crooked smile. Then ran home to warm kitchens and bright windows.
