4 3 Sunrise in January The pines’ rapturous tears are lit up like emeralds by the sun. And the birches grow sad in their sleep, as they dream o f Spring’s arrival. Thorny January walks through the forest, he doesn’t deign to warm up in the sun! In his wake the heavy, noisy, light-blue ice crust shudders. And the frost, ever stronger, clenches the defenseless chest of the birch. Spring and May are far away - be three times the pillar, little birch!
