The silent sound of snow..

 The sky turns red, giving an illusion of day break. And the snow drops in like a quiet house guest tiptoeing so as to not wake up it's hosts. The white blanket slowly covers all that was around us. With the first rays of sunlight one sees the tiny paw prints of furry friends who you did not know lived in the backyard. The bare branches of trees bow down with the burden of snow on them. A lone bird looks around for food, which safely sleeps under the warm hug of the white snow. The soft snow under your feet gives you the feel of white sands and far away lands with sunshine and warmth. The bitter cold reminds you of how harsh nature can be. At the same time, the peacefulness of the snow reminds you of everything that is right with the world.
