Sleep through the chilling winds
through Autumns snow and rain
Sleep through the cutting gale
through Winters ice and hail
As you sense the coming warmth
feel Spring arrive with life
issue forth a life belief
a tiny hand, a single leaf
Let it taste the frozen air
and breath in Winters end
Let it feel the Sun of Spring
and let the circle of life begin...

I like this. It sounds like a sort of chant you would say in Wicca during a ritual. Your words flow off the tongue like water flows carelessly down its river path, and I love that about your work. Wonderful take on the picture.
