A Dusting of Snow

I stepped outside to breathe the cool night air

to remove myself from the keyboard

and the current conflict in a story

within a story

and discovered

to my utter amazement

in silence

a light dusting of snow

had changed the appearance

of my small world...

Please tell me what you think

    Aint that the way? A small act, a simple word, something that ushes in while we were too busy bustling and worrying about something trivial knocks us off our feet and changes our outlook altogether. I have that a lot of the time...usually to humble my quick to judge self.

    Amazing, isn't it? The way a snowfall muffles all sound - so a silent place becomes even a softer silence? And the light? The way light diffuses over even the lightest snowfall over evergreen trees and rooftops? Here in the land of short trees and shorter winters, your quick write here reminds me again how much I miss your small part of the world.
