The First Snowfall

The head start snowfall always seems so magical to me. My first glimpse of glittering, white snowflakes brings an external burst of joy. Each diminutive snowflake, from a distance, looks only the same. But up close, I am able to see apiece unique pattern these small wonders possess. They shimmer and reflect like tiny little diamonds underneath the glow of the street lamps. Floating ever so gently, down to the not-so-bare ground, a gentle outing sends the snowflakes into a swirling dance onward they resume their journey to the earth.In the distance, I can hear the shrieks and laughter of small children as they relish in pure and innocent wonder, the joys of the first snowfall. I can only imagine them grabbing up handfuls of paper-light snow and throwing it into the air, sticking their warm little tongues issue to catch the frostiness of the flakes. I glitter to the left of me and notice a cat huddled in the tree of a dimly lit doorway dispenseed in a thin cover charge of c rystal snow, shivering miserably and letting out pathetic meows as he waits to be let into the warmth of his home. in that location is a cold kiss of wind against my flushed, red cheeks. And that chilly breeze sends a rushing sound through my bare, cherry-coloured ears. Tiny droplets of water, just moments agone were snowflakes, form on the base of my dark, auburn hair. I exhale precipitously and watch as a brief mist forms from my warm breath, variety with the frigid air. I hear the unmistakable piercing crunch of snow, as my boot hits the blanketed pavement. It is almost impossible to walk silently in the snow.I thoroughly enjoy the first snowfall. I stand outside and wonder at its beauty, as the earth is covered in the brightest, white blanket my eyes have ever perceived. I enjoy kicking up the lightness of the snow before it becomes heavy and hard with the burden of incessant snowfall. I stand there and let the tiny, diamond like flakes cover me for just a moment, because I know that soon this mesmerizing snowfall will soon transform into a bitter, long, bone-chilling winter.
