As winter was close
Ana put on her coat
The fur coat that mother gave her
A pot of tea stood boiling on the stove
She took it off to cool down
And shut the door behind her
She had a smoke
Puffed her cigarette
The lake was frozen
Ana walked there and tapped her foot
The ice was thick
Not thick enough to walk on it
Ana got back to the porch
She took four pieces of chopped wood
Then put them directly into the stove
She didn’t take off the coat
She was still feeling cold
As winter was close
