First snow
Fell the first snow. How beautiful! Drifting quietly over day and night, it arrived on the hill tops, on the lawns, on the roofs, and on the graves! A black curve was being drawn by the river on the white background. Trees with bald branches interleaving showed a great variety of postures and shapes under the grayish sky. How peaceful and quiet the snow flakes! Everything went dead and noises became mild music. No sound of hooves was heard and no running wheels were seen! The bells on the snow sleds delivered harmonic music with joyful rhythm like children’s beating.
