Winter (Hivern, de Miquel Martí i Pol)

Winter

I love the quiet of gardens,
and the swollen red hands of bricklayers.
I love the tenderness of rain
and the uncertain steps of the aged on the snow.
I love the trees with frost-drawings
and the quite of evenings by the heater.
I love the never-ending nights
and the people hurrying out of the cinema.
Winter isn’t sad:
It is a little melancholic,
with a white and most intimate melancholy.
Winter is not the cold and the snow:
it is to forget the preponderance of green,
an ever-hopeful restart.
Winter is not foggy days:
it is a rare suppleness of light
on objects. Winter is silence,
it is the town in silence,
it is the silence of homes
and that of rooms
and that of people who look, behind the windows,
how snow unifies horizons 
and makes everything
poignantly close and attainable.
