We awoke this morning to a winter wonderland.
Soft, wet snowflakes, blanketing the ground, cocooning us in a world of silence.
A gentle accumulation, it's as if Mother Nature took her powdered sugar shaker, and gave the landscape a sprinkling.
Magical.
Out of the cloud-folds of her garment shaken,
Over the woodlands, brown and bare
Over the harvest-fields forsaken,
Silent, and soft, and slow
Descends the snow.
~~By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.~~

It is a wonderful white landscape. I love how quiet the snow is, unlike rain. It does make life a little more difficult though. I'm sure you're warm inside and drinking cups of hot tea.
We are waiting for a cold spell. Not as cold as yours!
So pretty. Ironically up here in Northern Canada, we are melting and it's even going to rain today .... not our typical Winter but we see some snow forecast for next week. Enjoy your beautiful and quiet day! X Chy
Peaceful.
