The frozen tundra
Inhospitable to life
It lays motionless

A wind blows freely
over ice covered mountains
chilling the snowflakes

Stars appear above
shining on but not warming
the antarctic plains

The southern-most place
where winds don’t even blister
lies under the snow

Tundra, ice, and snow
On the southern pole
