Beautiful Snow

There's something about new fallen snow that's so magical. Maybe its the way the moonlight shines on it, making the world a whiter place. Whatever it is, it always leaves me breathless. I love how a blanket of snow makes a bleak, winter landscape into a stunning piece of scenery. It's incredible! I love how the snow makes the nights lighter and less cold. And I just love looking out my window and gazing at a snow covered world. Snow goes right along with the Christmas season. We put up the tree tonight! I even have a mini tree for my room (: and man does it make my room smell amazing! Another thing about snow that amazes me : the fact that NO two snowflakes are alike. Each is intricately and specially designed. Isn't that amazing? Wow. I would have such a hard time coming up with that many different patterns. Thank goodness I'm not in charge of making the snowflakes. As much fun as it sounds, it also sounds like a lot of hard work. My favorite kind of winter night? I'm out in the country, the city is miles away. There's a full moon shining on at least six inches of beautiful white snow. The stars are shining like diamonds against the black velvet night sky. The air is chilly and my breath shows in the moonlight. The world is silent, blanketed by the snow. A slight breeze blows my hair gently from my face. I breath in the cool night air and suddenly my worries are gone. How could you feel anything but peaceful on a night like this? It's beautiful. And there's nothing in the world quite like it.
